Selecting a partner to work with and for you is critical. Equally important is quickly knowing who they are and precisely what they can or cannot do for you.

Silver Screen Snacks is a privately held Utah-based LLC. We’ve been popping popcorn since 2014 and formally as a popcorn manufacturing company since 2016 (Water Gardens Confections, LLC).

Silver Screen Snacks is described as a “medium-sized regional” manufacturer within the industry. We will be a good fit for some, but not for every brand owner, company, or chain looking for manufacturing support.

We know exactly who we are, what we can do, and what we cannot do. We certainly appreciate stretch goals and projects, but not at your expense.

Our first facility was a 9-foot by 12-foot kitchen in a small town movie theater (Water Gardens Cinema 6, Pleasant Grove, Utah). Our first batches of popcorn were popped in two 32-oz Cretors Presidential concession kettle poppers. Sales and deliveries started in the back of a Ford F250 pick-up, to a 26-box truck, to a full 53’ semi-trailer mark our journey; we have experienced it all.

The catalyst for the formation of the Silver Screen Snacks Company was the downturn in the movie business brought on by COVID. It became clear that if the popcorn business was to survive, it needed to separate from the movie theater. In November 2020, Water Gardens Confections ceased operations. We were re-born as The Silver Screen Snack Company, LLC (Silver Screen Snacks) with Russ Robinson still leading the way (the founder of Water Gardens Confections, LLC) and a new partner team.

As fortune would have it, the company grew during COVID-19, as friends, families, and customers all across the West endured the impacts of COVID-19, watching movies at home and eating our popcorn.

In November 2023, after COVID, we commissioned a new state-of-the-art facility (Lindon, Utah) as we could no longer meet the demand. We could no longer package by hand and could not pop enough popcorn. And the rest, as they say, is history.
