Humble Beginnings in a Feed Store Sarah Cohen never imagined she'd spend her life making potato chips in rural Virginia. Growing up in Washington, DC, where she worked in her family's restaurant and hotel business from age 12, she learned work ethic early. However, manufacturing knowledge? That came later—much later. In her twenties, Sarah launched Route 11 Potato Chips in an old feed store in Middletown, Virginia. The setup was as bare-bones as it gets. "We had wooden floors," she recalls, still sounding slightly incredulous. "I know it sounds like the 1800s." The operation ran on 1960s equipment, and workers literally carried potatoes through the office to reach the peeler. Most remarkably, they stirred batches of chips with a garden rake. "I thought we must be the absolute most inefficient chip factory in the world," Sarah admits. Nevertheless, something magical happened. The local community grew curious, came to watch, tried the chips, and became advocates. That grassroots support hasn't stopped since day one. The Power of Transparency From the beginning, Route 11 did something unusual for its time: they installed viewing windows. Initially, this decision stemmed from necessity rather than marketing genius. Without a packaging machine during the first year or two, the company hand-packed chips and relied on customers coming directly to buy them. The window gave visitors something to do besides standing awkwardly in a "weird little wooden building." Before long, tour buses arrived. People came out of sheer curiosity to watch food being made—a rarity in manufacturing. When Route 11 moved to Mount Jackson in 2008, the town made "fry viewing" a stipulation of the deal. Sarah and her business partner Mike embraced this transparency wholeheartedly. "We're very shameless about just showing it as it is," Sarah explains. "This is the real deal. This is how something is made." Today, this openness feels prescient. Craft breweries and artisan food makers routinely showcase their processes, but Route 11 pioneered this approach decades ago. The Partnership That Changed Everything Running a chip factory with breaking-down equipment from the 1960s proved exhausting. Sarah attended food shows unable to sell with confidence because she couldn't guarantee production without breakdowns. Then came a serendipitous encounter in a Winchester bar. Mike, who had been "fixing lawnmowers in his diapers," loved the product but saw room for improvement. An Army veteran with an engineering mindset, he brought manufacturing vision and intensity to complement Sarah's creative approach. "We are very different types of people," she notes. "He's very engineer brain, sees the world in very black and white terms, whereas I'm much more muddled." Mike's obsession with preventive maintenance transformed the operation. Eighteen years later, visitors consistently comment that the equipment looks brand new. "That's because we take care of it," Sarah says simply. "We baby it and pamper it." This philosophy stands in stark contrast to many manufacturers who adopt a "run it until it breaks" mentality. As the conversation reveals, preventive maintenance literally saves money, especially in today's world of long lead times for parts. Route 11 maintains stockpiles of commonly needed components because they can't assume availability when equipment fails. Keeping It Simple: The Ingredient Philosophy Route 11's chips contain a remarkably short ingredient list. This minimalism serves multiple purposes. First, it lets potato chips taste like potatoes—a revolutionary concept in an industry often dominated by artificial flavors and additives. Second, it reduces exposure to recalls. As Sarah explains, "The more ingredients a product has, the more exposure you have to a recall. If one ingredient gets recalled, then you've gotta pull all that product." The company operates as a gluten-free certified facility with only one allergen: dairy, found in trace amounts in their dill pickle chips. They've developed careful protocols for running dairy-containing flavors at the end of the day, followed by thorough cleaning. Interestingly, Route 11 pioneered the dill pickle chip flavor—now ubiquitous in the snack aisle. Sarah, who enjoyed mixing pickle juice with her potato chips and grilled cheese sandwiches, decided to formalize the combination. The flavor garnered press coverage, morning show appearances, and a mention in Oprah's Magazine. "It's the closest thing we've actually formulated," Sarah says. "It's our version of a Doritos." The Costco Courtship Route 11's relationship with Costco began unexpectedly. The buying team discovered their dill pickle chips at a Leesburg deli and started calling. Sarah, having just moved to Mount Jackson, felt unprepared. "I was nervous about it," she admits. Costco persisted, eventually sending their buying team to the facility. They offered flexibility: "Just do what you're comfortable with. You tell us what you can do." This approach proved crucial for a small manufacturer wary of overextending. Today, Route 11 supplies Costco's northeast region—roughly 20 Virginia warehouses. They've learned that many small businesses mistakenly believe they must supply all Costco locations nationwide. Regional arrangements exist precisely for companies like Route 11. Supplying all 90 warehouses would require two to three truckloads weekly—essentially their entire production capacity. "We need a separate Costco production facility to be able to maintain this," Sarah jokes. Instead, they've found their sweet spot: getting chips into as many Virginia locations as possible while maintaining quality and reliability. Costco's rigorous annual audits have elevated Route 11's standards. "Their standards are higher than anybody's," Sarah notes. While the company would maintain high standards regardless, having customers with such exacting requirements pushes continuous improvement. The Flavor Balancing Act Route 11 currently offers eight flavors plus seasonal varieties, including the cult-favorite Yukon Golds. When Yukon Gold season arrives, the company experiences what they call "the Gold Rush"—digging, cooking, and shipping the chips as fast as possible before they sell out. However, Sarah learned a counterintuitive lesson about flavors: more doesn't equal better. "I was very delusional," she admits about her early vision. "I thought everybody's gonna love the chips so much, they would take one of each bag." Reality proved different. People have favorite flavors, and for all potato chip companies, most customers reach for the classic salted variety. Route 11's lightly salted chips represent 60% of sales. When slower-moving flavors like Chesapeake Crab occupy shelf space, they create holes where the lightly salted should be, hampering overall sales velocity. Consequently, Route 11 actually offers fewer flavors now than when they started. To introduce a new flavor, they must discontinue an existing one. This disciplined approach extends to their mission statement, which Sarah describes as "not very exciting": make a great product in a clean and safe environment. For a single-facility operation, one recall could prove catastrophic. Larger manufacturers can shift production to different locations; Route 11 has no such luxury. Crisis and Innovation: The Ukraine Connection The war in Ukraine delivered an unexpected blow to Route 11. Ukraine supplies 90% of the world's sunflower seeds, and when shipping stopped, the entire vegetable oil market seized up. "This is how we're gonna go out of business because we can't get any oil," Sarah remembers thinking. Their oil supplier found peanut oil—more expensive and carrying the stigma of being peanut oil—but something proved better than nothing. Route 11 had to apply different labels to every single bag, creating what Sarah describes as a "dizzying" OSHA hazard. Fortunately, the situation lasted only a couple months, and loyal customers understood. Yet this crisis sparked innovation. While desperately searching for sunflower oil, Sarah discovered a North Carolina farmer preparing to press his own oil. Soon, Route 11 will receive their first tractor-trailer load of oil from this farmer—just five hours away. For the first time, they'll purchase directly from a farm rather than through distributors. "I would not have necessarily found him had we not been turning over every single rock," Sarah reflects. This development aligns perfectly with Route 11's original vision of being regional, local, and sustainable. They already work with local potato growers in Dayton, Virginia, and certified organic sweet potato growers in Mattaponi, Virginia. Adding a sunflower oil supplier completes the circle. The Sweet Spot of Growth Route 11 now employs 53 people and operates on a four-day, 10-hour workweek. They cook during the day, with no Saturday or night shifts. This schedule reflects a deliberate choice about growth and quality of life. "We could add another shift if we wanted to," Sarah acknowledges. However, additional shifts mean accelerated equipment wear, increased maintenance costs, and the prospect of 2 a.m. phone calls about breakdowns. "That's the beauty of having your own business," she says. "You can make decisions like that. We know what we can manage." This philosophy recognizes a truth many businesses miss: there's a profitability sweet spot. Beyond a certain point, scaling up means doing more work for proportionally less profit. Route 11 has found their equilibrium—large enough to matter to suppliers, small enough to maintain quality and control. Instead of adding shifts, they've focused on optimization. Recent investments include a bigger water line for faster cleaning, an additional warehouse for better organization, and new oil tanks for receiving directly from farmers. These improvements help them "eek out more pallets of product" without fundamentally changing their operational model. Retail and Tourism: The Other Revenue Stream While wholesale accounts like Costco generate significant volume, Route 11's retail operation remains vital. The facility welcomes visitors who tour the production area, purchase chips, and browse merchandise including t-shirts and tins. The company ships nationwide, serving customers far beyond their regional grocery footprint. This retail presence serves as their primary marketing channel. People experience the product, see how it's made, and become evangelists. The model has proven so successful that Mount Jackson now hosts an annual Tater Fest—a potato-themed festival celebrating the town's most famous product. Lessons from the Trenches When asked what advice she'd give aspiring food manufacturers, Sarah's immediate response is characteristically honest: "Don't do it. Whatever you do." Then she elaborates more seriously. Small business ownership is all-consuming, like having children. Everything that can go wrong does go wrong. Success requires time, money, deep pockets, and support systems. Sarah deliberately avoided investors, unwilling to be "enslaved" to return-on-investment demands or have others dictating shortcuts for profit. Realism matters, but so does a touch of delusion. "If I had been realistic, I never would've done it," Sarah admits. Vision must balance with number-crunching. She credits the Small Business Development Center where Bill helped her develop a business plan and understand concepts like breakeven points. The timeline proves sobering: Route 11 took nearly seven years to break even. During that period, Sarah worked part-time at a pizzeria while her co-founder worked as a line cook at the Wayside Inn. They put every dollar back into the business, personally making no money. "You have to be in your twenties," Sarah jokes. The energy and resilience required make this a young person's game. When people call seeking mentorship while envisioning running their company from a beach in St. Barts, Sarah's response is blunt: "No, sorry. If you're already envisioning yourself running your company from the beach, you probably should not even start." Manufacturing demands on-site presence. It's like being a conductor, orchestrating multiple moving parts simultaneously. Customers calling with problems don't want to hear ocean waves in the background. Looking Ahead Route 11's future involves maintaining and growing thoughtfully. The pandemic forced a holding pattern, but Sarah feels ready to resume trade shows and active selling now that they've optimized production capacity. Challenges loom, particularly federal government layoffs affecting the DC market—a significant customer base for Route 11. Many restaurants are closing due to reduced lunch business, and Route 11 has been part of that ecosystem. Adaptation will be necessary. Yet Route 11's greatest strength remains reliability. "The most important thing about selling to somebody is that you're reliable," Sarah emphasizes. Potato chips move quickly, and if you can't deliver on time, customers find alternatives. Route 11's commitment to reliability has built trust that transcends market fluctuations. From wooden floors and garden rakes to Costco shelves and 53 employees, Route 11 Potato Chips embodies the American manufacturing dream—not the fantasy version where entrepreneurs run companies from tropical beaches, but the real version requiring grit, adaptability, community support, and an unwavering commitment to quality. As Cohen surveys her 20,000-square-foot facility, the journey from that cramped Middletown feed store seems both improbable and inevitable. "It's just a very interesting story," she says with characteristic understatement. For anyone who's ever tasted a Route 11 chip—crispy, perfectly salted, tasting unmistakably like actual potatoes—the story is more than interesting. It's inspiring.

Hop Forward: Getting You Ahead in the Brewing and Beer Business
Established in 2011 by General Manager and Brewster Claire Monk, Welbeck Abbey Brewery is situated on the Welbeck Abbey Estate. Founded as a Premonstratensian monastery in 1153, after the Dissolution, the Abbey was bought by Bess of Hardwick's youngest son, Sir Charles Cavendish.As with many country estates, over time, the house and grounds have become a popular tourist attraction, pulling in crowds of people for a quintessentially English spot of afternoon tea and a gentle potter around. Situated to the rear of the sprawling buildings, you'll find Welbeck Abbey Brewery, set in the heart of an artisan estate-village that produces specialist foods and crafts in a beautiful rural setting. Producing hand crafted ales using the estate's own spring water and a unique strain of nurtured yeast, the brewery now produces over 17,000 pints of award-winning ales each week, which they supply to local pubs, restaurants, and specialist bottle shops across the region and beyond.In this episode of the Hop Forward Podcast, we talk about the power of place with Claire and how they've built the brewery brand and marketing around the story of the abbey estate, while remaining relevant to drinkers in both the beer and pub space, as well as tourists who don't know the difference between an ale and a lager.We also chat about how swathes of people leaving the hospitality industry are leading to pub closures and how breweries finding it difficult to attract new talent onto their teams.Also on this episode, Nick catches up with David Griggs, Technical Director from Crisp Malt, to discuss malt consistency and the steps brewers can take in the brewhouse before blaming their barley!THIS WEEK'S EPISODE IS PROUDLY BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Charles Faram & Co (charlesfaram.com)Supplying hops for over 150 years, Charles Faram offers a vast range of nitrogen-flushed hop varieties from the UK, Europe, New Zealand, and the USA.Crisp Malt (crispmalt.com)Since 1870, Crisp has blended tradition with innovation, producing malts like Chevallier Heritage and Clear Choice Malt.FOLLOW HOP FORWARDhopforward.beer | LinkedIn | BlueSky | Instagram

Artificial intelligence is completely changing how data centers are built and operated. What used to be relatively stable IT environments are now turning into massive power ecosystems. The main reason is simple — AI workloads need far more computing power, and that means far more energy. We're already seeing a sharp rise in total power consumption across the industry, but what's even more striking is how much power is packed into each rack. Not long ago, most racks were designed for 5 to 15 kilowatts. Today, AI-heavy setups are hitting 50 to 70 kW, and the next generation could reach up to 1 megawatt per rack. That's a huge jump — and it's forcing everyone in the industry to rethink power delivery, cooling, and overall site design. At those levels, traditional AC power distribution starts to reach its limits. That's why many experts are already discussing a move toward high-voltage DC systems, possibly around 800 volts. DC systems can reduce conversion losses and handle higher densities more efficiently, which makes them a serious option for the future. But with all this growth comes a big question: how do we stay responsible? Data centers are quickly becoming some of the largest power users on the planet. Society is starting to pay attention, and communities near these sites are asking fair questions — where will all this power come from, and how will it affect the grid or the environment? Building ever-bigger data centers isn't enough; we need to make sure they're sustainable and accepted by the public. The next challenge is feasibility. Supplying hundreds of megawatts to a single facility is no small task. In many regions, grid capacity is already stretched, and new connections take years to approve. Add the unpredictable nature of AI power spikes, and you've got a real engineering and planning problem on your hands. The only realistic path forward is to make data centers more flexible — to let them pull energy from different sources, balance loads dynamically, and even generate some of their own power on-site. That's where ComAp's systems come in. We help data center operators manage this complexity by making it simple to connect and control multiple energy sources — from renewables like solar or wind, to backup generators, to grid-scale connections. Our control systems allow operators to build hybrid setups that can adapt in real time, reduce emissions, and still keep reliability at 100%. Just as importantly, ComAp helps with the grid integration side. When a single data center can draw as much power as a small city, it's no longer just a “consumer” — it becomes part of the grid ecosystem. Our technology helps make that relationship smoother, allowing these large sites to interact intelligently with utilities and maintain overall grid stability. And while today's discussion is mostly around AC power, ComAp is already ready for the DC future. The same principles and reliability that have powered AC systems for decades will carry over to DC-based data centers. We've built our solutions to be flexible enough for that transition — so operators don't have to wait for the technology to catch up. In short, AI is driving a complete rethink of how data centers are powered. The demand and density will keep rising, and the pressure to stay responsible and sustainable will only grow stronger. The operators who succeed will be those who find smart ways to integrate different energy sources, keep efficiency high, and plan for the next generation of infrastructure. That's the space where ComAp is making a real difference.
PREVIEW — Bruce Bechtol — China's Role in Supplying Dual-Use Technology to North Korea and the Axis. Bechtolexamines China's critical role in sustaining North Korea's military-industrial complex, particularly since 2019 when international sanctions enforcement effectively ceased. China supplies dual-use technologies and component parts, frequently procured through illicit channels, directly to North Korea, thereby reinforcing the axis of revisionist states comprising Iran, North Korea, and Russia. Chinese companies involved in these transfers maintain direct linkages to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), operating as instruments of state policy. 1951

How many grams per litre of dry-hopping creates those big juice DIPA flavours? What cereal should we use to create a self-stable haze? What are the correct additives and E-numbers that will give us the right hue to our teal coloured slush-puppy sour...? These questions are great but unless we dig deeper to unearth how we can grow our raw ingredients in unfavourable conditions, then perhaps synthetic-coloured beers are all we can look to in a dystopian future where smoothie-sours are the norm.In this episode, we explore why agricultural research is imperative for the future of brewing.

PREVIEW. Russian Frustration, US Targeting, and Escalation Risks in the Ukraine War. Anatol Lieven of the Quincy Institute discusses how the US is actively participating in the Ukraine war by supplying targeting intelligence, enabling strikes on Russian war nodes. Russian hardliners view this as the West targeting them and demand retaliation to force peace. Though Putin has resisted direct escalation, he would be forced to retaliate immediately if the West escalates first, for example, by seizing cargoes or shooting down aircraft.

The Financial Flow: China's Role in Fentanyl Money Laundering Josh Birenbaum, Foundation for Defense of Democracies, with John Batchelor Birenbaum discusses China's deep involvement in the fentanyl crisis, supplying precursor chemicals and dominating money laundering for Mexican cartels. Chinese money laundering gangs convert cartel dollars into RMB via a triangle system, catering to Chinese nationals who need US dollars outside of China's capital controls. Birenbaum suggests tracking dollars moving within the US and requiring proof of source of wealth for large purchases to disrupt this finance loop.
Tomahawk Missiles Would Extend Ukraine's Range but Are Not a Wonder Weapon. John Hardie discusses the possibility of supplying Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine. Hardie argues that the Tomahawk would extend Ukraine's range beyond existing Western missiles and packs more power than Ukraine's domestically produced drones. It is also noted as being a more capable missile that is harder to shoot down than current Ukrainian long-range systems. Hardie supports enhancing Ukraine's long-range strike capabilities, but cautions that the Tomahawk is not a "wonder weapon" that will turn the tide of the war. Practical and stockpile considerations for the United States, as well as alternative missile options, are also relevant. 1957

On Friday Oct. 3, shortly before dawn, 100 protestors disrupted Maersk's and ZIM's operations at the port of Elizabeth, New Jersey. This site exports weapons used by Israel to kill Palestinians in Gaza, shipped by Maersk and ZIM. In addition, it is one of the largest weapons exporters on the East coast. Supplying these weapons for Israel's genocide is a blatant violation of the U.S. War Crimes Act, the Leahy law, The Foreign Assistance Act, Arms Export Control Act, and The Genocide Convention Implementation Act. John Amidon of Veterans for Peace and Pax Christi talks about the event.

There are no immediate reports of impacts, injuries or damage after sirens sounded in parts of central Israel and the southern West Bank.4.

Hop Forward: Getting You Ahead in the Brewing and Beer Business
In this episode, Nick sits down with Dean & Jill Baker, the husband-and-wife team behind Bakers Dozen Brewing. Based in Rutland, the smallest county in the UK, the Bakers have built a lifestyle business from scratch — just the two of them — while balancing the headaches of running a brewery while keeping their relationship sweet.Once landlords of The Jolly Brewer in Stamford, the Bakers share how they cleared out the drug dealers and bad curtains from their pub and turning it into one of the market-town's favourite public houses, before tiring of being landlords and exchanging and beer-engines for mash paddles.Over the course of this conversation, we dig into what it really takes to run a two-person brewery, how they've won national awards like SIBA Golds for Undertow and Bull Run despite being small, and share their insights on running a marriage and a business together.Nick also shares his views on how bucket hats have brought more people out drinking this summer.

Readers did the math // Letters
In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: We'll start things off with new accusations from Ukrainian President Zelensky, who claims his nation has gathered intelligence that shows China is now supplying Russia with artillery and gunpowder—a major escalation of Beijing's involvement in Moscow's war effort. Later in the show—as the US and Iran once again head to the negotiating table this weekend, the UN's nuclear watchdog chief warns that Tehran is not far from acquiring a nuclear weapon. Plus, in what would appear to be a slap in the face to President Trump, the Kremlin is reportedly planning to use a U.S.-owned food producer it seized last year to supply canned goods to the Russian military.
