Rill Specialty Foods

Rill's Specialty Foods is a second-generation family-owned business based in Thorp, Washington, specializing in all-natural, hand-processed packaged soup mixes since 1985. Founded by Ninon when she was 25 years old, the company began as a small grocery store and café where her made-from-scratch soups became local favorites. After countless customer requests for recipes, she packaged her first two soups in 1995, and Rill's Specialty Foods was born. The company has grown from a small-town café to shipping over 200,000 packages annually while maintaining their commitment to quality and homemade taste. They offer a diverse range of specialty soup mixes including gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, low-sodium, and Daniel Fast options, serving health-conscious consumers and specialty food markets. Each soup is named after real places in the Northwest and includes stories connecting customers to the land that inspired them. The company sources high-quality ingredients from Northwest farmers and co-ops whenever possible, hand-packing every mix in their facility. Their product categories include bulk products, various soup varieties, and gift boxes, catering to both individual consumers and wholesale markets. Rill's Specialty Foods has overcome challenges including rebuilding after a fire in 2007, demonstrating resilience and commitment to their mission of making it easy to enjoy comforting, satisfying meals. The company serves the consumer packaged goods industry with focus on natural, wholesome food products that meet various dietary requirements and lifestyle needs.
