McCormick Black Pepper

McCormick Black Pepper is a flagship product of McCormick & Company, a global leader in the flavor and spice industry. The brand's history dates back to 1889 when Willoughby M. McCormick started the business in Baltimore, Maryland, initially selling flavors and extracts door-to-door.

Today, McCormick operates a highly complex global supply chain. While many of its products for the European market are processed and packaged in facilities located in France (such as the Monteux site) or the United Kingdom, the raw peppercorns are sourced internationally from major producing regions like Vietnam, India, and Indonesia. Consequently, the product is often labeled as manufactured in multiple countries depending on the specific batch and regional distribution center.

The brand remains under the ownership of McCormick & Company, which is a publicly-traded Fortune 500 company. It is recognized as one of the largest spice companies in the world, managing a vast portfolio of brands including Ducros in France and Schwartz in the UK.
