Redd-Eye Brand
Dan and Scott, the creators of Redd-Eye Brand, started their partnership as friends at a very early age. The two of them are lifelong friends that grew up in Lima, Ohio and remain best of friends to this day. They have always had a love for salsa and hot sauce and this love was shared between both of their families as well. At family gatherings they would see who could out do one another by consuming the hottest salsa or hot sauce during eating contests. The two of them have tried different brands of salsa over the years, but always ended up adding their own special touches to make it the exact taste they were looking for. Then one day, Dan and Scott realized they were doing all the work while giving other producers the profits!

Their dream of owning their own salsa and hot sauce company began to take place. Today, both Dan and Scott and their families play a part in making their dream a reality. Redd-Eye Salsa strives to provide a variety of flavors with different degrees of heat to satisfy even the highest of standards. “Our dream is to create flavorful products, that compliment any food, that requests that something extra,” the owners say. Their goal is to produce products that will surpass the quality expectations of the customers at a price that is competitive in a worldwide market.
