French's Classic Yellow Mustard is one of the most iconic condiments in American culinary history. The brand was originally created by Robert Timothy French and his sons in the early 1900s, famously making its grand debut at the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair. It quickly became synonymous with American ballparks and backyard barbecues due to its distinct, mild flavor and bright yellow hue derived from high-quality turmeric.
Over the decades, the brand transitioned through several corporate owners. For many years, it was held by the British company Reckitt Benckiser. However, in a significant industry shift in 2017, the brand was acquired by McCormick & Company, a global leader in flavor, spices, and seasonings. Today, French's continues to be a staple in kitchens worldwide, maintaining its legacy of using no artificial colors or preservatives.
Manufacturing for the North American market primarily takes place in Springfield, Missouri, though specialized packaging and distribution for international markets may occur in other regional facilities. As a part of the McCormick portfolio, French's benefits from a massive global supply chain while retaining its heritage as 'America's Favorite Mustard.'
