Culinary Specialties

CULINARY SPECIALTIES was started in April of 1996 by Chris Schragner working with non perishable food items out of his guest room. Due to increasing demand of the products, the business was moved into a warehouse where a few months later Patrick O'Farrell joined the operation. Still relying on outsourcing all products, and because of numerous inqui... ries by local chefs for customized appetizers, the company moved again into a USDA approved facility north of San Diego. Initially, the company only served the San Diego market, but word spread about the company's quality and the willingness to work directly with the chefs to produce specialty gourmet items to their specifications. After only a one year period, the company again had to move due to the rapid increase of business with the company's customers. The company's new production facility is now located in San Marcos centrally located between San Diego, Los Angeles and Palm Springs. The company is also very fortunate to start business relationships with local distributors in Arizona, Hawaii, Colorado, Missouri and Washington. Currently the company is in the process of expanding into the Las Vegas market. The company's commitment to quality, service and customer satisfaction helped the company along the way to establish CULINARY SPECIALTIES as a well known and respected company in the food service industry.Read More
