About Grillo's Pickles

Grillo's Pickles began simply with a pickle cart, just a small wooden stand in downtown Boston, where Travis Grillo and his friends would sell two spears for one dollar. Travis made the pickles by night using his family's 100-year old recipe - one he'd memorized from making pickles every summer as a kid. Then, in the morning, Travis would bike to the Boston Common and set up the cart with his buddies. Theyʼd hang out all day, urging people to try the simple Grillo family pickle. It was a small business, but Travis worked hard for it. He made more pickles, biked more miles, and slept less hours than he ever had before. Before he knew it, Whole Foods Markets and the Boston Red Sox asked to feature the pickles. Others promptly followed. Today, Grilloʼs Pickles are available in grocery stores across the country.
