A history of ELAC Cookies ELAC Cookies, Inc. is the genius of two best-friend classmates at East Los Angeles College. Though almost inseparable through their Accounting class, the two parted ways after the course ended - Remy heading abroad to study the art of pasty making in some of the most elite patisseries in Paris, and Linguini pursuing his love of food (especially green leafy vegetables) by landing jobs in some of the finest restaurants in their hometown of Los Angeles. A chance encounter back in 2016 reunited the two and got them talking of their mutual love of food and what they'd been learning. Soon they were spending their free time crafting quirky but sophisticated (not to mention delicious) cookies-passing them out to friends and family, and building a grassroots fan base around town. When the operation outgrew Remy's family kitchen, Remy and Linguini applied for a small business loan. With it, they bought a small kitchen workspace in Monterey Park and became the proud owners of a 2,000 square-foot facility where they produce high-quality cookies and a retail storefront. Not content to just the small retail counter, the pair doubled their efforts and are now operating a burgeoning food empire.

A couple years ago, as their business grew, the co-owners hired a new Controller, a CPA to help them continue to grow and stay profitable. Now they just landed their largest customer yet, further boosting their wholesale business. In 2017, the company had $6.1 million in sales revenue and is on track to do $9.3 million this year.
