Boar's Head Provision Company (also,
Frank Brunckhorst Co., LLC) is a supplier of
delicatessen meats and cheeses. The company was founded in 1905 in the
New York City area, and now distributes their products throughout the
United States.
History
In 1933, the company's founder,
Frank Brunckhorst, decided that the quality of the meats available for his distribution was sub-par. As a result, Boar's Head opened a small manufacturing plant to prepare his own meats in
Brooklyn,
New York. By the mid-1970s, the demand for Boar's Heads meats had prompted distribution to all parts of the
United States. Currently, the company is operated by the descendants of Mr. Brunckhorst and remains privately owned.
Products
On top of its line of in-house-made deli meats such as its flagship Ovengold turkey,
black forest and other
hams,
roast and
corned beef,
German-style
wursts and loaves, and
Italian-style
Prosciutto,
salamis, and
Capicollo, Boar's Head also distributes over thirty types of American-made and
imported European cheeses.
Boar's Head also produces a line of condiments, including mustard, honey mustard, horseradish, and barbecue sauces.
