Founded in 2022 by Niki and Dan Gemus of Amherstburg, Richmond Popcorn Co. was born out of a deep love for popcorn, family, and the communities they cherish. What started as a passion for crafting the perfect gourmet popcorn has blossomed into a mission: to strengthen and uplift their community, one fluffy kernel at a time.
Imagine yourself nestled in your living room, surrounded by family and friends, sharing stories and laughter over a big bowl of freshly popped popcorn. Each crunch is a small but meaningful reminder of the connections that bind us together. Whether it's a cozy movie night with loved ones or a casual catch-up with friends, those shared moments become something special—memories in the making. For Niki and Dan, this is what Richmond Popcorn Co. is all about. Their philosophy is simple yet powerful: when families gather around delicious snacks, they forge lasting connections. It’s in those moments of togetherness that bonds are formed and communities thrive. Every kernel of Richmond Popcorn is a step toward building a stronger, more connected community here in Windsor-Essex County.
At Richmond Popcorn Co., they offer a variety of irresistible flavours—perfect for everything from a midday pick-me-up to sharing with friends during your latest Netflix binge. But here’s the magic: when you indulge in their handcrafted gourmet popcorn, you’re doing more than just satisfying your taste buds. You’re supporting a vibrant local business that truly cares about its community. Niki and Dan are firm believers that when we invest in our neighbourhoods—with kindness, support, and shared experiences—everyone benefits. As they put it, “Richmond Popcorn isn’t just about popcorn—it’s about bringing people together with an unforgettable, handcrafted snack that’s as fun as it is delicious.” In fact, they proudly describe their business as “a small business with a big heart.” They’re committed to serving their community with creativity, care, and a passion for making every moment a little brighter.
So far, one of their proudest moments has been watching Richmond Popcorn Co. become a go-to destination for both locals and visitors. Whether it’s the launch of a unique flavour blend or the smile on a customer’s face after tasting one of their creations, every milestone feels like a victory. “Seeing the joy our popcorn brings to people is all the motivation we need,” says Niki. “From family movie nights to special occasions, we love being a small but delicious part of our customers’ lives.” Their success isn’t just measured in sales—it’s about the relationships they’ve built and the positive impact they’ve had on their community. “Every kernel counts,” is their personal motto, a reminder that every detail matters—whether it's the recipes they perfect, the customer service they provide, or the ways they engage with their neighbours.
When asked about the best piece of business advice they’ve received, Niki and Dan say, “Stay authentic.” Building a business that reflects who they are and what they value has been key to connecting with their customers in a meaningful way. This authenticity has been the foundation of Richmond Popcorn Co.’s success, fostering a loyal customer base that shares in their mission of community building.
