Our story
How we got our start?
The roots of our food-importing experience run deep. All the way back, in fact, to the days our grandfather imported his favorite European cheeses below the waterline on passenger steamships. In 1997, we launched igourmet.com to share our specialty food finds with gourmands everywhere.
What makes our product unique?
We carry the largest assortment of high-quality specialty foods — including over 900 cheeses — you’ll find anywhere. We champion small to mid-sized artisan food producers and help food lovers find more old favorites, rare specialties, and new surprises than anyone else
Why we love what we do?
We get to travel to astonishingly unique corners of the world to find the rare farmers and specialty products from nearly every culture and tradition. It not only results in shaping the food industry with new discoveries, but also builds everlasting friendships all over the world. Its fabulous!
