DDW, The Color House (D.D. Williamson) is a global, privately held corporation providing caramel color, burnt sugar & natural colorings for the food and beverage industry. In 1865, Dutch immigrant Douw Ditmars Williamson founded D.D. Williamson in New York to manufacture burnt sugars for the brewing industry.[1] The caramel industry moved into coloring cola and many other foods following Prohibition and the Great Depression.[2]

Now headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, DDW has nine manufacturing sites for naturally derived coloring on five continents with customers in 100 countries.[3] The company is an emerging leader for natural coloring in yellow, orange and brown hues.[4] Every day more than 2 billion servings of food and beverages containing DDW coloring are consumed around the globe.[5]
