In the past three years alone, have purchased more than 18,000 cases and more than 490,000 lbs. of produce from local farmers, and supporting Connecticut Agriculture – marks that will continue under the extended partnership.

Great local partners like Sardilli Produce & Dairy are extremely crucial to our vast food & beverage operations and we’re happy to announce the continued work together.”
“All of us at Sardilli Produce and Dairy are excited to extend our long lasting business relationship with Mohegan and continue to work with people who value our hard work, dedication and supporting a family owned and operated Connecticut Company,” said Devin Sardilli, Vice President of Sales. “It is a pleasure to service this organization and we look forward to doing so for many years to come.”
Sardilli Produce actually started as a fruit stand on Queen Street in Southington, CT in 1955 by Guido Sardilli. By 1975, his son, Don Sardilli, started wholesaling produce out of the back of the fruit stand, eventually calling it Sardilli Fruit and Produce. They now operate as Sardilli Produce & Dairy out of a 30,000 square-foot facility on Locust Street in Hartford, CT. They look to move into a renovated 225,000 square-foot facility in Windsor, CT in 2020. The new state-of-the-art location will handle their needs for distribution, office space and value added produce manufacturing.
