Chesterfield Teen’s Spice Company Goes from Local Startup to National Shelves πŸŒΆοΈπŸš€

A business that started with a Chesterfield teenager and a love of food, travel, and entrepreneurship is now going national. πŸŒΆοΈπŸš€

Andrew Rubin launched State Street Spices at just 16 years old while attending Parkway Central High School. Now 19 and studying business administration and statistics at Mizzou, Rubin has grown the company from local craft fairs to shelves at retailers including Dierbergs and Fresh Thyme Market.

The company offers four blends inspired by American food destinations: Buffalo Buffalo, Los Angeles Taco, New York Steak, and St. Louis Barbecue. Rubin says each blend requires about 80 hours of research to capture the food culture of its namesake city.

This fall marks another major milestone: a State Street Spices gift box is expected to be available at World Market stores nationwide. The company also gives back locally, donating 10% of its profits to children’s hospitals in Missouri.

It’s an impressive journey for a business that began right here in Chesterfield β€” and another example of a young local entrepreneur turning an idea into something much bigger.
