Schnuck Markets Inc. has announced plans to feature Dietz & Watson’s premium meats and artisan cheeses at its grocery stores beginning next month.
The store’s delis will begin the conversion to Dietz & Watson products in early November, with a full transition anticipated by early December.
“Just like Schnucks, Dietz & Watson is family owned and operated and is also celebrating 85 years of serving customers this year,” said Ted Schnuck, EVP of supermarkets.
“Schnucks’ mission to nourish people’s lives includes focusing on the importance of the health and safety of our customers. With Dietz & Watson’s decades-long history of quality, transparency and emphasis on the customer experience, we know that their products are a perfect fit for our customers.”

As the Dietz & Watson products are introduced, Schnucks will feature special customer pricing and expanded sampling opportunities. The partnership extends to the grocer’s employees as well, who will trained to educate shoppers on the offerings.
“We’ve listened to feedback from our customers and believe that Dietz & Watson’s broad assortment of premium deli options will be exactly what customers are looking for as they shop with us to feed their families,” said Geoff Wexler, Schnucks’ VP of deli and prepared foods.
“With this new partnership, our customers can look forward to delicious, high-quality meats, artisan cheeses, snacks and condiments.”
Customers will be encouraged to check their Schnucks Rewards app and weekly ad in November for more information about the new deli items.
“As a fellow family-owned business, Dietz & Watson shares the same emphasis on quality, and we are thrilled to be partnering with Schnucks to offer their customers a selection of premium meats and artisan cheeses in the deli,” said Dietz & Watson CEO Louis Eni.
“We are honored to service Schnucks stores and to serve the families who shop there, like only a family can. Because at Dietz & Watson, if it isn’t good enough for our family, it’s not good enough for yours.”
Health and safety of it’s customers?! Dietz & Watson has had 2 recalls recently including listeria AND salmonella! So let me understand this- Boar’s Head has had one recall in 119 years while D & W has had at least 2 in 85 years? Including one earlier this year as well? Something seems strange about this… This is what we as customers deserve? 🤢🤮 Dietz and Watson are decieving people when it comes to their marketing of product ingredients that are not healthy at all. I won’t shop at Schnucks anymore since Boar’s Head is the only reason why I go there.
