The Humble Dumpling was built on making people happy. So many families...so many surprised looks as folks tasted their first Humble Dumpling when it was operating out of a ghost kitchen and then a restaurant. So many messages of support when we had to leave the restaurant behind.
But our destiny was never going to be in owning our own restaurants. As The Humble Dumpling's founder, I knew I wanted to share Humble Dumplings with the rest of the world, but we needed to retool the business plan away from a retail storefront and towards wholesale production. It was the only way we could consistently make enough quality dumplings to reach more folks hungry for something deliciously unique.

Now we're bringing The Humble Dumpling back. We're starting to partner with Portland area local bars, restaurants, and caterers (and even a few super fans who buy our dumplings in bulk) who love the product as much as we do - and we have big plans for the future.
(We'll share more as things begin to gel.)
Because The Humble Dumpling isn't just a good business idea, it's a business that's built on making authentic connections with others. That's why we make every effort to make our business something greater than just another food producer. A rising tide raises all ships and if we're doing our jobs right we're making our business partners just a little more successful and a lot people blissfully filled with dumplings.
So...thank you for the love, Portland! We are so glad to be back.
Let the next wave begin.
