Exhibiting at Winter Fancy Food Show 2025

Gourmet International, founded over 45 years ago by Horst and Erika Nitzsche in Michigan, began as Erika’s Delicatessen and Import Haus, offering authentic German delicacies. Incorporated in 1989, the company is now led by second-generation owners Mike and Monica. It has grown into the exclusive importer of over 35 European brands, distributing specialty food and beverage items across all 50 U.S. states. Their product range includes pastas, vegetables, fish, meats, honeys, spreads, confections, cookies, chocolates, condiments, teas, and coffee. To accommodate growth, Gourmet International moved to a 125, 000 square foot warehouse in Grand Rapids, Michigan, enhancing their capacity to serve gourmet retailers, quality grocers, delis, gift shops, and more. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
