Peter Margolin
President
Grew up in Yonkers NY in Westchester County and currently resides in Rockland County with his family. The Founder of M&M Food Sales started in 1992. Peter’s passion for the culinary arts was ignited at a young age leading him to a sterling educational foundation as a SUNY Sullivan Culinary graduate.
Once graduated, Peter worked for McDonald’s which was recommended by the chefs at Sullivan. This gave him the understanding and foresight of how a well oiled machine works on a daily basis.
From there he worked in a managerial position at a family style restaurant and a white table restaurant over a three year period, which led him to work in sales for five years at Blue Ridge Farms. This experience led him towards the brokerage business field where he focuses on representing manufacturers that care about quality, ingredients, consistency and food safety.
