Through his Wolfgang Puck Worldwide Inc corporation, noted chef and restaurateur Wolfgang Puck announced a partnership with Schwan’s Consumer Brands North America Inc.
“My passion is creating authentic, innovative, and great-quality food products. As the leader in the frozen food category, The Schwan Food Co is an ideal partner for building the Wolfgang Puck brand in the frozen food aisle,” said Puck.
Austrian-born Puck oversees an empire of fine dining and fast-casual restaurants, catering services, and licensed products. Since 1982, he has opened 14 fine-dining sites nationwide. He has written six cookbooks, and his weekly syndicated newspaper column “Wolfgang Puck’s Kitchen” appears in newspapers in the United States and Canada. His Food Network show “Wolfgang Puck” won two Emmy awards.
Since 1970, Schwan’s Consumer Brands North America Inc, a Bloomington MN-based subsidiary of The Schwan Food Co, has marketed and distributed frozen foods in more than 50,000 retail outlets across the United States.
