Chiles Group also engages in real estate and strategic investments through entities like Gamble Creek Farms and Shogun Farms, supporting ventures ranging from hospitality to food development. Unified by a responsible approach to sustainability, the group's values prioritize thoughtful stewardship and innovation across all areas of investment.

OUR BRANDS
Chiles Group purchased Gamble Creek Farms in 2021 with a vision to bring local produce to restaurants and residents. However, founder Ed Chiles also wanted to process waste and create super-nutritious soil for all that it would grow. The 26-acre farm has a full market, serving local grocery products, soups, salads, and sandwiches every day.
