Growing and thriving
Knishes from Gabila’s Knish in Copiague.
Pasta from Bruno’s Specialty Foods in West Sayville.
Even mixers from The Murph’s Famous Bloody Mary Mix in Melville.
Those are just some of the food items that are grown, raised, baked, battered or otherwise sourced from Long Island.
And they end up in restaurants from Maine to Virginia.
It’s all through DiCarlo Food Service, one of the largest privately owned wholesale food distributors in the nation. So, how does a guy who calls himself “The Murph” get into business with a food distributor like DiCarlo?
“He just called me up one day,” said Vincent DiCarlo, Jr., whose father and uncle started the company in 1963.
After 60 years, that’s how this family-run business still does things: hands on.
In a wholesale food distribution industry that has changed mightily over the last five years alone — with as many as 10 Long Island distributors either selling or going out of business — DiCarlo Food Service has managed to not only survive, but thrive.
The company attributes this to a loyal staff, local producers, white glove service, and customers who become friends.
The fact that anyone can easily get a DiCarlo on the phone helps, too.
“This company was built on the support of family-owned restaurants and local manufacturers,” said Michael DiCarlo, VP of Sales at DiCarlo. “Some have been buying from us for 30, 40, 50 years, and now the original owners’ grandchildren are buying from us.
“It’s just an amazing thing to see and experience.”
In the winter of 2023, another another 580,000 cubic-foot refrigerated storage space came online at the company’s 20-acre headquarters on North Ocean Avenue, just south of the LIE in Holtsville.
That’s in addition to the existing 5 million cubic feet of dry, refrigerated and freezer storage space there.
“If our customers do well, we do well,” Michael DiCarlo said of the latest expansion. “If they can grow, we can grow.”
About the drivers
DiCarlo’s local delivery drivers all hold commercial drivers licenses, A or B, and a non-excepted interstate Department of Transportation medical card. (Experienced doubles are needed and could often be paid a bit more.)
They’re reliable, safe, personable, and always keep customer service in mind.
“We have good employees and people who want to work and earn a good living,” says John DiCarlo Sr., now the company’s president.
“We’ve been blessed in that regard.”
Now they’re looking to be blessed even further.
