Before deciding to dedicate his sales efforts to building local brand awareness, our owner and founder, Paul, spent years in the specialty coffee industry. 

With hard work and perseverance he was able to build strong working relationships with local grocers and specialty food retailers. 

These strong relationships along with an appreciation for local foods, prompted Paul to ask himself  one simple question..."what if we started a sales and marketing company that offered quality, affordable, experienced sales representation to small local food manufacturers?"... and thus, Paul Johnson Specialty Food Sales and Marketing was born.  We are fortunate that we get to make a living working with great people, having fun and loving what we do.
