Meet Jarvis Ferdinand, Baldor’s Supply Planner with a passion for all things wild and fresh! Jarvis’s career journey began in the East Village at Balducci’s in the late ‘90s, where he first discovered an array of specialty ingredients—from Wagyu beef, sourced directly from Japan, to a mind-blowing 5 LB white truffle from Italy that sparked his curiosity. Born in Trinidad in the Caribbean, this was a completely new world for him. His passion for foraging naturally flourished as he transitioned to working with Urbani Truffles and Caviar, where he deepened his knowledge of wild mushrooms from diverse regions. “Urbani was the biggest importer of wild mushrooms and truffles at the time. They were the first to import fresh porcini from South Africa, along with all sorts of dried wild mushrooms from China. That’s where my passion for wild ingredients began—learning about mushrooms and where they grow all over the world.” What Jarvis enjoys most about working in the food industry? “I always look forward to the changing seasons. Spring is my favorite because that’s when everything wild really pops—from white asparagus in France, Germany, and Holland to morels and ramps here in the U.S.” Jarvis believes what sets Baldor apart from other food distributors is the company’s willingness to embrace risk. “Baldor isn’t afraid to take chances. Whether it’s a fresh, dry, wild, local, or a specialty item from halfway around the world that costs an arm and a leg, they’ll go for it when no one else would.” We’re fortunate to have Jarvis on our team. His extensive knowledge and expertise support our commitment to sourcing premium ingredients and delivering the exceptional service our customers rely on.

We were thrilled to exhibit at this year’s International Fresh Produce Association Global Produce & Floral Show, marking our first time exhibiting at the event and unveiling our UrbanRoots rebrand. Our refreshed look and expanded offerings highlight bold, globally inspired flavors, as well as our continued focus on delivering the convenience and quality our customers rely on. One of our newest innovations is Fruit+, a snack pack featuring fresh-cut fruit paired with globally inspired sprinkles and sauces that offers a transportive, flavor-driven experience. We also unveiled our new line of blended, Cantina-style salsas—offering that classic restaurant-style taste and texture, with the added benefit of a longer shelf life for retailers. It was rewarding to see people try our products and smile as they were transported by the bold flavors. A huge thank you to everyone who visited our booth and celebrated this exciting new chapter for UrbanRoots. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to push the boundaries of flavor! P.S. If you stopped by our booth, drop a comment below and let us know which product you enjoyed trying the most! We'd love to hear your favorites. #UrbanRoots #GPFS2024

We had the wonderful opportunity to visit Michelin-starred Chef Vikas Khanna at Bungalow NY for our Baldor Fresh Picks Chef Series, just in time for Diwali. Bungalow offers a nostalgic journey into India’s vintage clubhouses, blending history, culture, and exceptional cuisine. Inspired by the vibrant street food of Delhi, the signature Smoked Sweet Potato Chaat at Bungalow brings this nostalgia to life, featuring green mango sauce, yam chip, and ashwagandha droplets, with purple sweet potato sourced from Baldor. A huge thank you to Chef Vikas Khanna and his team for welcoming us into this incredible space. #BaldorFreshPicks #ChefVikasKhanna #BungalowNY #SmokedSweetPotatoChaat #DelhiStreetFood #Diwali

We couldn’t have asked for a better emcee than Margaret Magnarelli for the opening of our new 100k sq ft DMV-area warehouse in Lanham, MD. It was a pleasure having our customers, vendors, employees, and neighbors join us to celebrate this milestone. Huge thanks to everyone who worked so hard to bring this facility to life!

Baldor was featured in a Bloomberg article on the rise of pandan in NYC's food scene. Pandan is becoming a must-have ingredient, known for its earthy sweetness and versatility in both sweet and savory dishes. Find out more about this trending ingredient and its many uses below.

Yesterday, we were excited to unveil our new 100,000-square-foot warehouse in Lanham, MD! With a presence in the area since 2012, we today serve more than 1,000 customers across DMV, and this major expansion will allow us to serve even more. Special thanks to State Senator Alonzo Washington , State Delegate Ashanti Martinez , Jolene Ivey from the Prince George’s City Council, Courtney Edmonds from the Prince George’s Chamber of Commerce, Captain W. Faris and Baldor leadership for making the start of this new chapter for Baldor so memorable. We’re also excited to welcome 65 new team members as part of this growth. “Our commitment at Baldor is to our customers, our vendor partners and our employees—everything we do needs to be a win for all three,” says TJ Murphy , CEO and owner, Baldor Specialty Foods. “As our business has rapidly expanded in the Washington, D.C. area, we knew we needed a facility that could match the pace of our growth and support our commitment to getting our customers the best products as efficiently as possible. At the same time, we wanted to maximize product sales for our vendors, and bring on more local farmers and producers, while also increasing career and salary opportunities for our employees. With this move, we believe we have hit the trifecta.” #BaldorDC #RibbonCutting #WarehouseExpansion
