Jack Renison founded Crispie Creme in Kansas in 1929; his son Jim opened the Chillicothe shop in 1954 (current building 1964). A Paducah, Ky. Crispie Creme sold in the 1930s became the seed of Krispy Kreme. The Chillicothe shop is the only one left and remains in the Renison family.

Open since 1954

Renison family, fourth generation; Hallie Renison co-manages.
