Skippy Peanut Butter

Skippy is a globally recognized peanut butter brand that was first introduced in 1933 by Joseph Rosenfield in California, USA. The brand became famous for its wide variety of textures and its innovative use of hydrogenated vegetable oil to prevent oil separation. For over 80 years, it was managed by various American corporations, notably Best Foods and later Unilever.

In 2013, the brand was acquired by Hormel Foods, a major American food processing company. Today, Skippy is manufactured primarily in the United States, specifically in Little Rock, Arkansas, though it has international manufacturing sites (such as in China) to serve global markets. The brand remains under the stewardship of Hormel Foods, maintaining its position as one of the best-selling peanut butter brands in the world.
