Family. Quality. Tradition.

Founded in 1925 by Sam Villari, Villari Foods is still a family-owned business with a rich history. As a teenager, Sam came to America from Italy, instilled with the value Italians place on pure, good food as an integral part of family and social life. He started his business with little but a dream as a butcher shop in Philadelphia’s 9th Street Italian Market. At Villari Foods today, we combine our unwavering commitment to our beginnings as an artisan, Italian butcher shop with our capacity to keep pace with evolving customer demands. We pay attention to detail and pride ourselves on hand-cuts, exceeding expectations for great taste, good health, variety, value, convenience and creativity in the kitchen. With the fourth Villari generation now entering the business, our family remains dedicated to ensuring an exceptional experience for all who enjoy our products. While our butcher shop is a little bit bigger now, we remain committed to our roots.

We offer a wide variety of quality pork and other meat products for retail, foodservice and export markets. We understand and are responding to consumer preferences for meat products that are locally sourced, humanely raised, antibiotic/hormone/steroid free, and organic. And we’re well known for our smoked products.

As part of Villari Foods, we also have our own livestock and trucking operations, which allows for greater quality control and extraordinary customer service, including superior delivery options. We partner with local farms and are committed to environmental sustainability.
