The Botto family owns and operates the C. W. Brown Sausage Company, which makes some of the finest home-made style sausage in the Delaware Valley. Sold in better stores area-wide, the sausage is a tasty delight to behold.
Founded in 1887 by English settler, Cyrus Watson Brown, C.W. Brown & Co. began as a sausage and scrapple processor in the South Jersey area.
In 1965, Robert Botto, a former livestock buyer and slaughterer from South Philadelphia purchased the company from Cyrus Dobbs, the last living aire of Cyrus Watson Brown. Maintaining the "family-owned" atmosphere, Botto created his own blend of Italian seasonings for Italian sausage & meatballs under the Botto brand name, and also continuing to manufacture the fresh pork sausage and scrapple items with Brown’s original recipe.
Since then, Botto’s has become the favorite brand of Italian sausage in many households of the Delaware Valley.
In 1981, C.W. Brown started offering the product line in a Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP), which so many companies now use today in their packaging practices. This package enables the meat departments to have an extended shelf life in each package, thus reducing shrink. This also gives stores the ability to have extra inventory so they are never out of stock and risk lost sales.
Our product line can be sold in a variety of ways. We offer a fixed weight packages that are Scan Friendly. Also, we offer a unique 7-Inch Griller Italian Sausage in a 5-lb MAP bulk pack. This package is available for stores that provide a Service Meat Case Program.
Today, we operate in a state of the art 25,000 sq. ft. facility. Along with our Sausage & Meatball Line, we include a Case-Ready Meatloaf Mix (Beef/Pork/Veal) and Ground Beef Pattie Program.
C.W.Brown also service’s the foodservice industry with a cooked sausage & meatballs product line. Ready to stay with the trends, CW Brown is preparing to introduce our Botto’s Italian Line Express Meals, for the retail supermarkets in the very near future.
Currently, we distribute our products from the East Coast to the West Coast in over 1,000 retail stores in 15 different states, included are Acme Markets, Albertsons, Shop Rite Stores, Giant Foods, US Military Commissaries, and BJ'S Wholesale Clubs.
Still owned and operated by the Botto Family our commitment to producing a high quality product and 100% service keeps us apart from the typical regional sausage company.
