Abstract:

A chance meeting in the 1940s between Dr. Richard Stelling, a Greensboro physician who formulated flavors in his basement, and Kermit L. Murphy, Sr., a local insurance salesman, led to the formation of a company, now called Mother Murphy's. The company is known for its high-end vanillas, in addition to the other 350 flavors it produces and sells. Its customer base extends from local bakeries to the military.
