Hitch
Hot sauce brand founded by Katherine Kervis. Website unavailable.
The Story
Hitch is a craft hot sauce brand founded by Katherine Kervis and her husband Matt. The company specializes in small-batch, flavorful hot sauces crafted for food enthusiasts who appreciate bold heat and complex flavor profiles.
The brand was born in Costa Rica, where Matt was making sauces from scratch in their garden. When the couple moved back to Oregon, they decided to turn the hobby into a company that could eventually fund a return to beach life.
Hitch has reached roughly one hundred and fifty-seven thousand dollars in annual sales and is carried in regional chains across the Northwest, with some trial runs in Kroger and Fred Meyer stores. Kervis manages marketing while working full-time as a vacation rentals marketing director, and Matt teaches culinary classes online. The official website is currently unavailable for verification.
