To understand why Watkins, you need to know a little background.
The Beginning:
Joseph Ray Watkins started the J.R. Watkins Medical Company in 1868 and the company has been a pioneer in natural personal care every since. Since the beginning, Watkins has specialized in home remedies using natural botanicals, such as camphor, menthol and herbs, to help people feel better and live healthy lives.
The Spice Company:
J.R. traveled the world searching for the finest natural herbs and extracts to formulate his remedies. During his travels, he realized the pure and rich spices from far away lands should be shared with his customers to use in their pantry, thus beginning Watkins long history as the spice company.
The High Quality Products
Commitment to quality has always been a source of pride for Watkins. Customers benefit from and depend on this consistent attention to detail. Watkins offers products for everyone-from everyday necessities to special indulgences.
- Distinctive gourmet and organic food products serve a wide range of tastes and cooking styles.
- Natural-based apothecary personal care products blend the best of nature with today’s modern science.
- Timeless remedies like our original Red Liniment and our amazing Petro Carbo Salve stand side-by side with today’s most advanced dietary supplements.
- Environmentally friendly home-care products ensure a clean home and a clean world.
Watkins adheres strictly to the same quality standards set forth by the founder, J.R. Watkins. They continue to provide products that are good for the earth, good for others and good for you. All Watkins products are backed by J.R.’s original 100% money-back satisfaction guarantee so you can use them with confidence. If someone is not completely delighted, they receive a full refund. That’s why so many people insist on Watkins products for every area of their lives.
Award-Winning Products Made with the World’s Finest Ingredients:
Just as when J.R. Watkins founded the company, Watkins is committed to offering outstanding natural products of superior quality and value.
To achieve these high standards, Watkins has always used only the finest ingredients—herbs and botanicals from the world’s best growing regions.
Because they have our own manufacturing facility, research and development lab, quality assurance, and many years of experience, they are able to maintain the most stringent quality standard—the Watkins standard.
As a testament to that quality, Watkins Vanilla, Cinnamon and Pepper received the Gold Medal of Honor at the 1928 World Expo in Paris, France. Nearly 80 years later, they’re still winning awards.
The All-Natural Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Extract and USDA Certified 100% Organic Black Pepper both recently received the Cooking Club of America Member Tested and Recommended Seal of Approval.
So why Watkins? Quality products at a fair price from a company that cares about more than just the bottom line. That’s why Watkins.
