Abstract:

Johnson describes the workings of two pickle packing companies in North Carolina that have captured almost all of the state's pickle market--Mount Olive Pickle Company of Mount Olive and Cates Pickles of Faison. The two companies are located less than eight miles apart in the heart of the state's tobacco, soybean, pepper, and cucumber country. Nationwide the pickle market generates over $1 billion, and the two companies work hard at getting a slice of it.
