The company was founded 33 years ago by a Vietnamese immigrant named David Tran, who was looking for a way to bring the flavors of traditional sriracha hot sauce he knew and loved to the Southeast Asian community in Los Angeles. From there, of course, it became one of the more popular condiments in the world. According to a recent article by Quartz, the media-shy Tran apparently doesn't care about profits, despite the fact that his company sold 20 million bottles of hot sauce and reaped about $60 million last year alone. His motive, he told Quartz, is simply "to make enough fresh chili sauce so that everyone who wants Huy Fong can have it. Nothing more." And, really, isn't that what we all want? ( CBC News
