Columbus Craft Meats was founded on a stubborn pursuit of perfect taste. We’ve been committed to crafting great-tasting salami and deli meats for over 100 years. And while a lot about us has changed since our founding in 1917, the best things have stayed the same. We use only premium, whole muscle cuts with no trim, leading to a firmer bite and consistent texture. To highlight the meat’s unique flavor profile and honor the specific Italian region of origin, we use only carefully chosen spices. There are no corners cut here. Our longer fermentation times lead to a unique, old-world flavor. Columbus Craft Meats has been part of the Hormel family since 2017 and is committed to inspiring people through inspired foods.

Katie Yan is an associate sr. product development scientist and has been with Columbus Craft Meats for 2 years. Previously her background was in frozen food with Ajinomoto North America. She is a certified Charcuterie Salumiere through the International Dairy Deli Bakery Association and is passionate about food and all things charcuterie.

The NCIFT New Professionals are a group of recent food science graduates and new professionals in the first ten years of their food science career!
