Gebhardt Chili Powder Company History and Growth
Organized in 1896 Gebhardt Chili Powder Company of San Antonio grew from a Mesilla origin into a leading maker of chili powders and Mexican products. It boasted government inspectors overseeing meat and gear, exports worldwide, and a product line including Mexican peppers, tamales, chili, and enchiladas. The firm claimed a large workforce of over two hundred, with a global demand for its chili and Mexican foods and a story linking to Cortes through a mythic origin of chili paste.
