Chef America Inc. was the manufacturer of the microwavable snack Hot Pockets.
Chef America is a former closely held corporation, which was formed in the late 1970s by two brothers, Paul and David Merage,[1][2] of Colorado.
Nestlé acquired the corporation in 2002 for $2.6 billion.[3] Hot Pockets continued to be manufactured in Englewood, Colorado, Chef America's former headquarters, until 2013, when the corporate headquarters was merged with Nestlé's frozen food corporate office in Solon, Ohio.[4] As of 2016, all Hot Pockets were produced in Mount Sterling, Kentucky.
