McCormick returns to the Harbor

McCormick and Company, once located in the Inner Harbor, comes back to its roots this summer with a retail shop called McCormick World of Flavors. It will be located on the first floor of the Light Street Pavilion at Harborplace.

Visitors will be able to enjoy interactive and educational displays to determine flavor profiles, origins of spices, and other activities.

There will also be a focus on cooking, baking, and grilling with McCormick products, including demonstrations by McCormick chefs and celebrity chefs.

From 1920 to 1989, the headquarters of the now Sparks-based company was located on Light Street. Many Baltimoreans will remember the vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg scents that permeated the downtown area.

The new McCormick shop sounds like just the boost Harborplace needs.
