John Marcinko's Company Details

Van and Betty Bennett founded Van Bennett Food Company, Inc. in 1940 to serve the local grocery stores with Best Foods products. Today, Van Bennett Food Company is still family owned and operated. John Marcinko and his wife Joline are third generation owners and their children Michael Marcinko and Chanin Kwiatkowski have now brought the fourth generation family into the mix. In 1957, Betty prepared salads out of her home kitchen and sold them through the business. Business flourished over the years and expansion into the food service arena occurred in the late 1970's. Betty's Salads is currently an approved supplier member for Legacy Foodservice Alliance, selling over fifty salad and dessert items nationally. Van Bennett Food Company joined a buying group in the mid 1980's allowing them to become a full broad line distributor covering a 60 mile radius around Reading, PA. Servicing mainly deli and sandwich shops, Van Bennett Food Company also services other customers such as restaurants, caterers, healthcare, retail grocery stores, institutions, convenience stores and vending operations.
