San Giuseppe Salami Co.

“From the earliest days, Italian culture and tradition were integral to my family’s daily life. As the child of Italian immigrants, I grew up surrounded by the joys of authentic Italian cuisine, with my parents’ restaurants and delis on Long Island serving as my culinary training ground. 

Years later, I took those cherished lessons and moved south to North Carolina, where I began preparing small-batch cold cuts and salamis using traditional family recipes passed down through the generations. Recognizing a growing demand for flavors we had enjoyed back home, we expanded production into a modest USDA-inspected facility in nearby Elon, North Carolina, and established the San Giuseppe Salami Company, named after the village where my mother was raised.”
