Pappy's Fine Foods

In 1960, Alex "Pappy" Papulias started Pappy Meat Company in Fresno, California as a wholesale meat company for the San Joaquin Valley. In 1981 Pappy passed away, leaving his wife Marie, four sons and a daughter to run the increasingly competitive meat business. Pappy and Marie's youngest son, Eddie, while attending college, decided the company should change direction, focusing on specialty seasonings and sauces. With little capital to start off, the family began manufacturing its first product as Pappy's Choice Seasoning in 1985 and distributing to a few supermarkets under the new name Pappy's Fine Foods, Inc. Since then, the company has flourished, now with over 25 different products being manufactured in a new state-of-the-art packaging plant.

Manufacturing Processes

The steady growth of Pappy's Fine Foods has not changed everything, however, as Pappy's is still owned and operated by Marie and her five children. A long-standing commitment to the community coupled with strong family values are the backbone of the company, and will always play a great part in making Pappy's Seasoning a family favorite.
