Our Story

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to our Company and primarily its Founder, Enrico Palarchio. Enrico, along with his family, has been involved in many aspects of the food business.

Enrico came to Canada from Italy in 1959 when he was 24 years old and worked at a lumber Company, but the food industry was what he wanted to specialize in. It was what he knew and loved best as a chef in Italy where he experimented with many specialty Pastas, Meats and Sauces.

He started as a butcher at a local Meat Market in 1963 and later the same year also worked in & managed a second food and clothing store gaining experience and knowledge in the retail trade.

Enrico by now had mastered the English language and had managed to raise the capital for his own business. In 1965 he opened his first Meat & Deli Shop. Eugene and Fiore Palarchio, his eldest sons now run the store, known as Paesano Foods specializing in Gourmet Hot Deli, Take Out and frozen prepared entrees.
