How Ella's Kitchen Started
Ella's Kitchen was created by a person named Paul Lindley in 2004. He named the company after his daughter, Ella. Paul used to be a manager at Nickelodeon, a TV channel. He left that job and used his own money to start Ella's Kitchen.
The very first store to sell Ella's Kitchen organic baby food was Sainsbury's in 2006. To get the word out, Paul Lindley worked with Nickelodeon. He offered them a share of his company's earnings if they would advertise his new baby food for free.
Growing the Company
In 2009, Ella's Kitchen began selling its products in other countries. They expanded to Sweden, Norway, and the United States. By 2014, Ella's Kitchen had become the most popular baby food company in the United Kingdom.
The company was purchased by the Hain Celestial Group in 2013. After this, Ella's Kitchen became a part of Hain Celestial's group that focuses on food for babies, toddlers, and kids globally.
What Products Ella's Kitchen Makes
Ella's Kitchen makes and sells organic food for babies and toddlers. They have about 80 different food products. These include baby food, smoothies, and healthy snack ranges. Ella's Kitchen was the first brand to introduce food pouches to the baby food market.
