We have 125-year-old shoes to fill, and we respect our history as much as we cherish the opportunity for continued growth.”

✨In 1898, Italian Immigrant and new Chicago resident Vincent Formusa began importing foods from his native Sicily. Over the years, he expanded his business with his son Peter to include pickled vegetables, Olive and Vegetable Oil, Tomatoes, Pasta, and other Italian Specialty foods. Peter’s Son in Law Bob Johnson took over the business in the 1970’s along with his wife Sue, Pete’s daughter. Bob with Sue grew the business exponentially through his years as President and is celebrating his own 50-year anniversary with VFC. The company moved beyond local delivery and moved into international sales and distribution under Bob and Sue.

Today, Bob and Sue remain active in the company. And while Bob still serves as CEO, the business is now in the hands of the fourth Generation as two of their children Jeff and Joey, serve as President and Vice President,
respectively.
