Olympia Provisions

Olympia Provisions began with a deep-rooted family ethos of self-reliance and a passion for quality food, brought from the mountains of Greece to Portland, Oregon. The founder's journey from growing up in a vibrant Greek-American household, immersed in the art of farming, food preservation, and hospitality, to apprenticing under master chef Annegret Schlumpf in Switzerland, set the stage for the creation of Olympia Provisions. Upon returning to the U.S., the vision to recreate the old-world charcuterie traditions was realized in the vibrant culinary scene of Portland, a city rich in artisanal food practices and sustainable agriculture.

Now, Olympia Provisions is more than just a charcuterie business; it's a family affair, with every member playing a crucial role in the operation. From overseeing restaurants to managing sales and the entire business, the family's collective effort ensures that every piece of meat, from smokehouse to shipping, is handled with care and precision. This dedication extends beyond traditional charcuterie, as Olympia Provisions embarks on a mission to change the industry from within. By focusing on regenerative agriculture and supporting small farmers, Olympia Provisions is not only producing delicious, high-quality salami but also contributing positively to the environment and local communities.

The art of making charcuterie at Olympia Provisions is a pursuit of perfection, where the simplicity of pork, fine sea salt, and refined technique come together to create products of unparalleled quality. This commitment to excellence, combined with a passion for sustainable practices, positions Olympia Provisions as a leader in the culinary world, dedicated to crafting exceptional products that reflect a deep respect for tradition, community, and the environment.
