- Business History
- Tony Chachere's® Creole Foods began in 1972 as a retirement hobby for South Louisiana chef Tony Chachere. That year, he published Cajun Country Cookbook, fulfilling a lifelong dream to record the recipes of his beloved South Louisiana cuisine. In the book, Tony included the recipe for his favorite homemade seasoning blend, and several recipes in the book used the seasoning. It was only a matter of time before users of the cookbook began to demand the seasoning. Ever the entrepreneur, Tony met the demand and began to manufacture his seasoning blend, which he named Creole Seasoning. He also developed an instant base called Roux and Gravy Mix, which was an instant hit with fellow Cajun and Creole cooks.

General Info
Tony Chachere (sa-shur-ee) was a real man, a man who loved life and knew how to cook. The folks in Acadiana referred to him as the Ole Master of fine Cajun cuisine. That was almost 100 years ago. Today, the Tony Chachere's Brand has grown from the simple Creole Seasoning to almost everything you'd like to pour it on or stir it in. Gumbo, Jambalaya, Etoufees, Gravies and Rouxs; stuffed chickens, smoked sausage, boudin and Tur-duc-hens, good flavor spreads fast. And it all began in a little Louisiana town. You would need a map and maybe a special guide to find the corporate offices of Tony Chachere's, buried in the old neighborhood streets of Opelousas (ah-pel-loo-sas), Louisiana. If you're lucky you'll find a parking space just before the tracks. Walk in the door and you'll find out just what Cajun hospitality is. Thanks to the internet, you can buy whatever you want from our online store from the comfort of you easy-chair, kitchen counter, desk or on your commute back home. We hope you we can add a little spice to your life, even if it's only in the kitchen!
