Mark Dieffenbach started making his own potato chips on his kitchen stove in Berks County, Pennsylvania. His chips became very popular with family and friends and a short time later, he built his own kettle cookers, which the third generation of the Dieffenbach family stills uses today. As the business grew, Mark needed larger fryers and expanded from his kitchen to a small plant in the garage—on this exact site.
Through the generations, Mark’s son, Elam, and now grandson, Nevin, continue to use the family recipe to produce the best tasting kettle chips, sweet potato chips and root vegetable chips made with the finest hand-selected ingredients.
