... CEO says: 'Demand is just high'
The Baltimore-based brand has toiled to keep the product in stock
McCormick and Co. is hustling to keep demand for Old Bay at bay.
The seafood spice flew off store shelves as Americans embraced home cooking when the pandemic hit last year, and the Baltimore-based brand has toiled to keep the product in stock ever since, its chief executive revealed.
On Monday, McCormick Chairman and CEO Lawrence Kurzius got candid about the hot demand for the herb and spice blend.
"We hired 1,400 additional people mostly in our supply chain and we have added roughly the equivalent of an entire new factory by changing shift patterns and bringing in human resources," Kurzius said.
