Rastelli Foods Group has transformed itself as the go-to protein processor in the e-commerce (and home-shopping) segment, all while building its retail brand and growing its legacy retail, foodservice and export businesses.
When The National Provisioner profiled Rastelli Foods Group in October 2014, the company had built itself into a steak-cutting foodservice, private-label and export powerhouse. The story touted the company’s “full-circle success,” as it had reached back to its roots as a butcher shop, opening the first of several specialty-retail markets in the greater Philadelphia region.
Today, the processor has reaped the rewards of investment into those channels and further grown those segments. However, those ventures are a small part of the high-flying success that Rastelli Foods Group has experienced in the last year, having expanded into new arenas and quickly built a reputation as the go-to protein processor in those segments.
