Kansas City Steak Company is a family-run business based in Kansas City, Kansas, that manufactures and markets premium beef (including USDA Prime beef), poultry, seafood, and other foods for foodservice and home delivery. ==History== Kansas City Steak Company was founded by Giovanni Scavuzzo during the Great Depression. He opened the S&S Meat Company butcher shop in 1932 with sons Santo, Edward and Carlo. The retail store operated for nearly 50 years. In 1980, the family decided to focus entirely on foodservice, delivering meat to hotels and restaurants around the Kansas City, Missouri area. When Ed Scavuzzo, great-grandson of the company's founder, joined the business in 1984, he focused on a new venture: a mail order catalog. Capitalizing on Kansas City’s reputation for premier steaks, he called the mail order portion of the business Kansas City Steak Co. The catalog business grew during the 1980s but only accounted for 8-10 percent of the company’s revenues. In 1995, Kansas City Steak Company signed a deal with televised home shopping channel QVC. Today, managed by John McKinven (president, consumer division), The Kansas City Steak Company distributes meat products to restaurants across the United States and delivers packaged gourmet products nationwide. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kansas City Steak Company」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
