We at Better Made have a fantastic team and a customer base that is second to none that make this all possible. I can’t wait to see what the future holds.”

The company has won numerous awards and accolades for its snack foods over the years, and part of Better Made’s success story is the development and release of new products. Another component of the company’s success is its commitment to community endeavors, such as its annual fundraisers for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society of Michigan and C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital’s Block Out Cancer campaign as well as disaster relief with the Red Cross, and numerous other events and fundraisers.
Founded in 1930 in Detroit as Cross and Peters, and now in its 94th year, Better Made Snack Foods continues to develop and provide a wide variety of high-quality award-winning snack foods, including assorted original and flavored potato chips, and potato sticks, gourmet popcorn, pretzels, tortilla chips, pork rinds, and more. The family-owned company uses locally grown potatoes and the finest oils.
