Martin Foods is a renowned brand with a rich family tradition that began in 1944. The brand was founded by teenaged brothers, Israel and Melvin Tapick, who embarked on a remarkable journey to Go the Extra Mile for their customers. Their dedication and innovative approach led them to procure six turkeys during wartime rationing and shortages, impressing a local restaurateur and earning them $12—a significant amount at the time.

Under the leadership of the first and second generations of the Tapick family, Martin Foods made significant strides in the protein industry. They were pioneers in offering fresh chicken parts to food service and retail customers and were among the first to cater to the emerging fast-food industry. Later, the brand expanded to become the largest independent purveyor of center-of-the-plate and specialty foods in the southwest.

Martin Foods' commitment to adaptation and excellence continued under the third generation of leadership, exemplified by Jeffrey Tapick. The brand successfully navigated the challenges posed by the COVID-19 crisis and focused on manufacturing value-added chicken and meat for foodservice, retail, and industrial clients. What sets Martin Foods apart is its caring family culture, core values, and customer-centric approach.

The brand puts family first and strives to understand its customers' challenges in order to provide tailored solutions. They go the extra mile in service and never settle for mediocrity. With a spirit of curiosity and creativity, they continuously explore new possibilities.
