Our Story
In 1997 three entrepreneurs founded TrueRide, Inc., which specialized in creating custom-made municipal skate parks. Over ten years the TrueRide crew designed, built, installed, and serviced more than 450 skate parks, providing vital community spaces across the USA and abroad. The skate ramps surfaces were made using a paper composite material also used for decades in commercial kitchens.
One year the trio of owner/entrepreneurs made cutting boards as holiday gifts from the waste and cut-off generated from the fabrication and building of the skateboard parks…and Epicurean was born in 2003.
In 2015 the company partnered with Victorinox Swiss Army and moved from its headquarters in Duluth, Minnesota to a 60,000-square-foot facility in Superior, Wisconsin.
