Kettle Care Botanicals blends natural ingredients with science for local skincare products.

Annegret and Klaus Pfeifer, owners of Kettle Care in Kalispell, produce personal care items using seasonal, locally sourced ingredients combined with scientific manufacturing methods. This approach reflects a structural shift in small-scale production, emphasizing quality and local supply chains.

Purchased in 2012, Kettle Care operates with a focus on small-batch production visible at their Flathead Valley facility. Klaus’s background as a physicist and chemist informs their technical approach, while Annegret’s finance experience supports business operations.

The Pfeifers also participate in Montana West Economic Development’s Masterclass sessions to refine their strategy. Christy Cummings Dawson, president and CEO of Montana West, notes their unique melding of traditional botanical therapies with hard science creates consistent, high-quality products.
