Our Story

The Kuitwaard family has a long rich history in the food industry spanning for four generations, beginning in the Netherlands at the turn of the last century. This tradition began with the Kuitwaard Butcher Slagery or Butcher Shop, opened by John Kuitwaard Sr.’s Grandfather, and the bakery opened by his father for which he made local deliveries by his bicycle. For the past 25 years John Kuitwaard, Sr. was the President of Metropolitan Food Service and his son John Kuitwaard became a father and son team after John Kuitwaard Jr. completed his studies at Johnson and Wales in Culinary Arts Chef Training and Restaurant and Food Services Management……
