OUR STORY
It’s been a journey to bring savory meat pies to America – with our own personal twist and dedication to quality and service.
Our adventure began while growing up in beautiful South Africa – we always dreamed about opening a business together as a family. And here we are!
ABOUT US
As a family growing up in South Africa we were exposed to many unique cuisines and influences, not only from our Scottish and Maltese parents but also from the British traditions that made it over to sunny South Africa.
Savory meat pies was a favorite and very much part of our upbringing. Fast forward a decade (or two) and after moving to America we missed the food we grew up with and couldn’t find locally. We came together in 2015 and established Pouch Pies in Georgia, our new home.
Settling in Georgia as our new home
2015: POUCH PIES OPENS IN ATHENS, GA
Our goal - To bring something traditionally “different” to the table.
Over 5 years our following grew to not only expats who missed a taste of home, but a new fan club of meat pies all around the US.
2018
We opened our own USDA permitted pie manufacturing facility to get more pies to more people, partnering with restaurants and retailers to stock our pies.
