NEW YORK - The fireworks are still bursting from this year’s Fourth of July festivities, but we here at AndNowUKnow have yet another celebration on our minds. D’Arrigo New York is celebrating its 75th anniversary, reflecting on a legacy that began on July 4, 1948.

Kevin D’Arrigo, Vice President of Operations, D'Arrigo New York“It’s a reminder that the company was built, starting from nothing, on the strong core values, vision, and tireless effort of my grandfather,” Kevin D’Arrigo, Vice President of Operations, shared in a release from the company. “My father and uncles continued those principles for four decades, growing and carefully guiding the business into the market leader it is today. I’m fortunate to be a part of it.”

In honor of this impressive milestone, D’Arrigo New York has taken a moment to look back on its continuous growth, dating back to its roots at the Washington Market, which is now TriBeCa in New York City.
