Bruce Goldberg and his father, Martin Goldberg, founded Food & Paper Supply Company, opening the first location at 50 E 71st Street on the South Side of Chicago.
Bruce Goldberg’s lifelong best friend, Danny Friedman, purchases 50% of the company. This establishes the Executive Foundation that still exists today.
The location on 71st Street tragically burns down. Despite losing all of their inventory and their distribution center in the blaze, FPS doesn’t miss a day of business, nor miss a single delivery.
