Monterrey Provision Company

Monterrey Provision Company was founded in San Diego in 1972 by Dick Herman who humbly launched the Company by selling pickles out of his trunk. He grew the Company into a niche distributor for delis and sandwich shops, adding product offerings and staff. From the beginning Herman focused the Company's efforts on providing superior product offerings and excellent Customer Service. This continues to be the primary reason for Monterrey's sustained success.

In March of 2008, Luke Abbott became President. Prior to becoming President, Abbott spent over a decade leading each facet of the Company's Operations, from Finance to Sales. He learned that the key to Monterrey's longevity, growth and success was fully committing to the concept of "Customer Intimacy" and expanding the Company's focus in a customer-driven business model. As a result, Monterrey has become a recognized leader in the emerging farmer's market retail and retail-chain segment.

With over 35 years of expertise in retail and foodservice, Monterrey is a valued partner to each of its customers, committing to both their goals and success. Abbott himself explains it best: "We consider our customer's lifetime value, rather than simply the profit and loss on a few transactions. Our employees ensure that each customer receives what he or she 'really' wants, when they need it. The Company has designed and developed operating models which allow us to produce and deliver a much broader and deeper level of support, and we tailor our mix of products and services."
