History
Philip Lance and Salem Van Each, Lance's son-in-law, began selling one-piece snacks in 1913. Two years later, they opened the door of Lance's Packaging Company in North Carolina. In 1943, Philip Lance Van Every took over the leadership of Lance, who was still a private company. Today, Lance, Inc., is a leader in the snack industry and one of the largest snack manufacturers and distributors in the United States, particularly in the South.
On March 6, 2001, Lance Inc. restated its earnings for the fourth quarter and a full year 2000 with two cents per share, citing 'accounting inaccuracies'.

Nabs
Many of the snack crackers produced by Lance are often referred to as "Nabs", the common trademark name for snack chips originating from competitors, the Nabisco company. The term originated in 1924 when the National Biscuit Company (Nabisco) introduced a snack, put in a 5-cent enclosed package called "Peanut Sandwich Package". They immediately added a second, "Sorbetto Sandwich Packet". These packages allow sellers to sell to soda fountains, street stalls, milk bars, lunchrooms, news kiosks, etc. Sales increased and in 1928 the company adopted and started using the name NAB, which immediately won public approval.
