Cactus Corn in the News

We've been popping in Phoenix since 1998. Every once in a while, someone points a camera at it. Here's where Cactus Corn has been featured.

Snacked on kettle corn at a ballgame? It probably came from this local company

Sara Crocker spent a morning in our Phoenix production facility for Phoenix New Times, then traced the story back to 1998, when Chris Levandowski's parents sold bags outside Chase Field at the Diamondbacks' second home game ever. The piece covers the 10,000 pounds of kettle corn we pop every month, how the Southwest flavors come together in the tumblers, and where Cardinals fans will find us at State Farm Stadium this football season.
