outhern ier rovisions is celebrating over twenty years of distributing to members of the pizza industry. Because we have been fortunate enough to have multiple vendors with quality products and many loyal customers, we have become known as "The Pizza People".
	Since Jim Russo's family had always been involved in the cheese industry in Sorrento, Italy and in the United States, it was only natural that he would continue in the cheese business, a business in which he had worked in previous years. Therefore, in 1980, Jim Russo initiated a truck route in the Steuben County area. Since he was the only employee, he enlisted the help of his family when school was not in session. Tony Russo, his older son, who now works with his father in the business, was nine years old when he helped unload and deliver his first case of cheese. In the beginning, Jim operated with one truck; eventually he rented a cooler and warehouse. In 1985, the first building on Route 415 South was erected; a year later, the retail store was opened.
	We now have six tractor trailers, as well as other vehicles to serve you. We have increased the number of products we carry and the number of customers we serve. Deliveries are made in four states. Tonia, Jim's daughter and a Graphic Artist, has now joined the staff to provide assistance in designing menus, logos, business cards etc.. Because we are a family business, no other business can give you the same quality products. We are indeed "The Pizza People".
