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.
“We certainly had interest in other big players for this contract but based on the well-established relationship, exceptional service and overall great product that Sardilli provides, the choice wasn’t very difficult in the end,” said Jeff Hamilton, President & GM of Mohegan Sun. “They’ll continue food distribution to more than ten restaurants here at Mohegan Sun, and that’s in addition to our back of house grill that we have for thousands of team members. 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.”

Sardilli Produce actually started as a fruit stand on Queen Street in Southington, CT in 1955 by Guido Sardilli.
