Three childhood buddies ...and a family tradition.
|
The Spolumbo's Story is a modest and simple one. It's a story of three first
generation Italian-Canadian boys who grew up in traditional Italian families.
With the family spirit of old-fashioned Italian tradition, the boys hand-cranked their familys' small food grinders, helping to make home-made Italian foods, like sausage and fresh crushed tomatoes for sauce.
They were raised to be strong, solid and
charismatic gentlemen...and CFL football players.
The childhood buddies, Tom Spoletini, Mike Palumbo and Tony Spoletini all
played football for the Calgary Stampeders of the
CFL, and some of the determination, drive and team spirit they learned as professional football players has helped them build Spolumbo's Fine Foods and Deli.

With the passion born in Italian households, the guys began making sausages
in the after-hours at Tom's father-in-law's restaurant, offering their sausages to other restaurants in Calgary and area.
Soon the demand became big enough that they purchased their own Deli
and opened a small 10-seat sandwich shop in the Inglewood area of
Calgary. Today, still in Inglewood, Spolumbo's Sausages are made out of a
state-of-the-art facility, in the same building as the fabulous and spacious 100
seat Italian Deli.
From humble beginnings, to being found in some of the biggest supermarkets in
Western Canada, Spolumbo's Fine Foods has progressed into a major supplier of Italian
sausage. This kind of success is not possible without the sacrifice and
commitment of everyone at Spolumbo's.
Tom, Mike and Tony are guys who are
passionate about good food, friends and family. Spolumbo's quality products
are a reflection of that passion.
