Club Chef is the fresh-cut processing member of the Castellini Group of Companies. Operating since 1978, Club Chef has grown from a small local processor into one of the largest regional processors in the country. Bob Castellini, Chairman of the Castellini Group of Companies, acquired Club Chef in response to customers` demand for processed produce. As time passed, Bob saw the paradigm shift as the foodservice industry began to demand fresh-cut fruits and vegetables. Capitalizing on this trend, Bob was able to establish Club Chef as Castellini Group of Companies` fresh-cut provider. Club Chef serves most all of the major customers in the foodservice industry. Operating out of state-of-the-art 210,000 square foot facility based in Covington, KY, Club Chef processes a wide variety of fruits and vegetables seven days a week – 24 hours per day. For over 30 years, Club Chef`s core values and principles have not changed. Our dedication to highest quality, customer service, food safety, continuous improvement, and innovation has allowed Club Chef to grow into a leader in the produce industry. At Club Chef we have a strong belief in honesty, integrity, and respect for each other, creating mutual success amongst ourselves and our customers.
