How a husband and wife from Long Island started a Salumeria in North Carolina...
"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."
-Giacomo Santomauro, Owner and Founder of San Giuseppe Salami Co.
Today, we are proud to continue the time-honored traditions...
Crafting each product by hand with the utmost care and attention to quality, we utilize only locally-sourced pork, as we strive to bring the flavors of Italy to families across the Carolinas. Today, our products can be found in restaurants, markets, breweries, wineries and supermarkets across the Carolinas, Mid-Atlantic and beyond.
Even as our small business has grown, our mission remains unchanged — to provide authentic, high-quality products that you can trust. From our family to yours, we hope you'll join us in celebrating the rich culinary heritage that has been passed down through the generations.
