History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 311421-06 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • The history of the "Preserves/Jams & Jellies (Manufacturing)" industry dates back to ancient times when people used to preserve fruits and vegetables by drying them in the sun or smoking them. The first recorded evidence of jam-making dates back to the 1st century AD when the Romans boiled fruit with honey to create a sweet spread. In the 17th century, the French started making fruit preserves, and by the 18th century, the industry had spread throughout Europe. In the United States, the industry began to develop in the late 19th century, with the first commercial jam factory opening in 1897 in Boston. In the early 20th century, the industry saw significant growth due to the development of new technologies, such as pasteurization, which allowed for longer shelf life and safer products. In recent history, the "Preserves/Jams & Jellies (Manufacturing)" industry in the United States has faced challenges due to changing consumer preferences and increased competition from other spreads, such as nut butters and chocolate spreads. However, the industry has also seen growth due to the increasing popularity of artisanal and organic products. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic also led to an increase in demand for shelf-stable products, including jams and jellies. Overall, the industry has a rich history of innovation and adaptation to changing consumer needs and preferences.
