FAQs

At Boar’s Head, we are committed to providing the highest quality delicatessen products. Nothing less. We use only the finest ingredients: premium whole cuts of beef, pork and poultry, and spices sourced from around the globe. That’s why Boar’s Head has been the deli brand you can trust for over 115 years.

Founded in 1905, Boar’s Head Brand is a family business. Five generations ago, our company began with the belief that consumers deserved a better quality ham than what was available. Over the years, our company has grown. But, our standards for quality have never wavered - a value passed down from one family member to the next. As a family business, we choose to be devoted to our consumers, not stockholders. We choose to only bring to market products that we believe in, products that meet the standards set for us long ago.
