James W. Brush, President
Alison S. Sloat, Vice President
The Key West Key Lime Pie Company, founded in 2006,
is happy to announce their 4 year anniversary.
Now with 2 locations, Big Pine Key and Key West they
are looking forward to continued growth.
"Even with the recession in progress we felt it was
still possible to expand" says co-owner Jim Brush.
"We opened our 2nd location, November 2009, in the
heart of the cruise ship area of Key West, Front and
Duval Streets. With over 700,000 ship visitors
annually, many of whom pass right by my front door,
it was an ideal spot" Jim explains. The one thing
we've learned is the gourmet food industry will
survive many turns in the economy. Simple
indulgences make people happy and they will not
deprive themselves of pleasures to the tummy. Don't
get me wrong, the economy has been a real
eye-opener. The monthly tasks in good times such as
monitoring inventory, labor, cash flow and marketing
budgets became a daily routine. You did not want to
keep cash tied up anywhere. As Key Wests only winner
of 5 Blue Ribbons in The National Pie Championships
we are constantly sought out by visitors who are on
the hunt for the Best Key Lime Pies. We have a huge
wholesale business in the Keys and across the
country. We are currently looking at 2 more
locations in the Keys.
