I’d like to acknowledge some of the leaders at Scott’s Restaurants and one person who stands out as especially important is Jackie Julien. She is cut from the same cloth as my mother, Lena. My mother had nine children in twelve years. She ran a very tight and organized ship. Jackie doesn’t have nine children, but she does have a family of coworkers that look up to her for guidance. Jackie started working with Scott’s Restaurants 35 years ago. She… Continue reading Leaders at Scott’s Restaurants

First of all, my mentor Victor Barulich, with BiRite Foodservice Distributors, took me under his wing 56 years ago. Three generations later, I am still… Continue reading Relationships with Purveyors
