Grillo's Pickles

Grillo’s Pickles began in 2008 when founder Travis Grillo turned rejection from a shoe design job into inspiration. He hauled his family’s century-old pickle recipe to Boston’s streets, starting with a hand-built cart at Boston Common selling two spears for a dollar. His all-natural, garden-fresh pickles struck a chord with consumers nationwide, leading to rapid growth across major retailers.

What makes Grillo’s pickles stand out is their commitment to real ingredients and crunch. The recipe is simple: cucumbers, salt, water, vinegar, garlic, dill, and grape leaves for extra crunch. Crafted from fresh produce with no preservatives or artificial additives, the taste evokes memories of home and maintains the quality of a farmers-market favorite even at scale.
