F<\/span>or 30 years, Mark Hungarland dreamed of starting his own business. When he turned 55, he thought about what he would regret not doing in his life\u2014and that turned out to be the push he needed to take the leap and finally pursue his dream. Sure that his son-in-law\u2019s delicious, homemade pickles would be a hit with retailers and customers alike, Hungarland combined those pickle recipes with his passion for running a small business and founded Doux South<\/a>. Learn how this Atlanta-based, RangeMe Verified\u2122 brand has found success in a variety of places, from farmers markets, to food services, and, with the help of RangeMe, to Publix shelves.<\/p>\n

A farmers market favorite<\/b><\/h2>\n

From the very first taste of his son-in-law Nick Melvin\u2019s variety of pickle recipes, Hungarland knew they would be a hit with customers. \u201cThe more I tasted, the more I thought \u2018we should be selling these things\u2014they\u2019re fantastic,\u2019\u201d Hungarland says. \u201cIt took a little convincing, though, because that wasn\u2019t really in his plans.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Luckily Melvin, a well-known Atlanta chef, ultimately agreed to try selling the pickles, and Doux South launched in 2013 with a varied offering of pickled cucumber, tomato, pepper, and cabbage products.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe do traditional, Southern-style pickles\u2014we\u2019re not just your typical cucumber pickle company,\u201d Hungarland says of Doux South\u2019s products, which are all made by hand. \u201cWe wanted to be different from what was in the marketplace.\u201d<\/p>\n

It turned out that different was exactly what customers were looking for, as Doux South quickly built up a fanbase when they started selling at farmers markets in Atlanta. \u201cThe markets were critical because we could give people samples, and our product is all about the taste and the crunch,\u201d Hungarland explains.<\/p>\n

Finding success in food services<\/b><\/h2>\n

\"\" It wasn\u2019t long before retailers and restaurants took notice of Doux South\u2019s unique pickled products at farmers markets, too, and started stocking them in bulk in their stores and kitchens.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe uniqueness and breadth of our product line makes us a desirable addition to an olive bar,\u201d Hungarland says. \u201cOur food services are actually the biggest part of our business right now.\u201d This success in food services has been really exciting for Doux South, but Hungarland was eager to actively pursue retailer placements as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had expanded our food services, but it seemed like getting into grocery retailers was a bit more of a challenge,\u201d he explains. \u201cWe had moved to a much bigger production facility, so we had the capacity to fill orders\u2014we were just waiting for the opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n

Putting pickles on Publix shelves<\/b><\/h2>\n

Ready to take on the retail space, and seeking less traditional avenues to make connections with buyers, Hungarland signed up for RangeMe. After some initial interest, he received a sample request from a buyer at Publix.<\/p>\n

Hungarland didn\u2019t hear back for quite some time, but several months later a distributor reached out. \u201cHe let me know that Publix actually wanted to move ahead and stock two of our items,\u201d Hungarland says. Doux South is now carried in the \u201cGeorgia Local\u201d section of Publix, at 140 stores throughout the state.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to be on their local shelves,\u201d Hungarland says. \u201cIt was important to us to get into a chain that is more accessible to people who want to try our products, so we are very excited about this partnership.\u201d<\/p>\n

After the success with Publix, Hungarland was inspired to upgrade his RangeMe account, and he is confident that Doux South\u2019s Verified status will continue attracting buyers on the platform and lead to more in-store placements.<\/p>\n

A dream come true<\/b><\/h2>\n

Hungarland is looking forward to expanding Doux South\u2019s product offering and growing the team while retaining the brand\u2019s handmade, authentic spirit. They recently launched a new line of refrigerated pickles in plastic packaging, which he believes will attract new customers. Hungarland is also optimistic about expanding the placement with Publix. \u201cHopefully, that does well and we can expand to be on regular shelves throughout all of their stores,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Founding Doux South fulfilled a lifelong dream for Hungarland, and he is excited to continue the brand\u2019s retail success with the help of RangeMe. \u201cI have no regrets,\u201d he says of his decision to quit his longtime job and start his own business. \u201cActually,\u201d he corrects himself, \u201cmy only regret is that I didn\u2019t do it sooner.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
