About Schiff's Restaurant Service Inc
From its modest beginning as a small store on Penn Avenue, Pennsylvania to its present status as a multi-facility corporation, the story of SchiffÂ’s is the story of an American dream. Founded by Morris Schiff in 1945, the business operated for 24 years servicing local hotels and restaurants with wholesale food and meat.
Then in 1969, Mr. SchiffÂ’s, confronted with new federal regulations in the industry, informed his employees that he was closing his business. At the time SchiffÂ’s had 4 employees; a manager, a bookkeeper, meat cutter and a driver. Mr. Alyn Scheatzle was employed as the meat cutter.
The young meat cutter from Duryea approached Mr. SchiffÂ’s to purchase the business. Mr. Scheatzle purchased the company from Mr. Schiff and the company became known as SchiffÂ’s Restaurant Services Incorporated. Through Mr. ScheatzleÂ’s direction and leadership, the name SchiffÂ’s became a household word in the Scranton area, as well as in the restaurant industry.
