About
Ken’s has grown from producing dressings for a small steakhouse restaurant in 1958 to the largest privately-owned dressing and sauce company is the U.S.
Our success is founded on putting flavor and family above all else. The same flavor-obsessed family that started bottling Ken’s is still bottling the Salad Dressings and Sauces today.
Product Use:
Round Table Pizza buys our delicious Salad Dressings and Wing Sauces from Ken’s Foods.

It’s a family company and that means a lot to Robert because he’s a family guy. Ken’s has grown but the pillars of a family business have remained. Everyone in our company including the owners are accessible to our customers.
