With roots as a mom-and-pop shop in Seattle’s Historic Pike Place Market, Cucina Fresca Gourmet Foods today is a leading producer of natural prepared foods for retail and foodservice.

Chef-owned and operated, Cucina Fresca creates “real food” from real food – fresh, premium, natural ingredients readily found in home kitchens. Many of the company’s staple ingredients are locally sourced from family farms and produce growers, while others are imported from countries of origin – such as European cheeses – to create the best possible flavor and quality.

“We handcraft everything in small batches from only the freshest, highest quality ingredients available to ensure the most delicious experience possible.”

– Chef Brad Glaberson

Brad Glaberson, Owner and Executive Chef of Cucina Fresca Gourmet Foods, has been creating outstanding food for more than 20 years.

His passion for pasta began at the esteemed Culinary Institute of America where fellow students struggling with making pasta from scratch were told to “go see Brad.” Since then, he has had a knack for making great fresh pasta and other delicious gourmet foods.

Brad joined Cucina Fresca in 2002 as general manager – he quickly fell in love with this small company “with great potential” and after a few short years, purchased the business. Today, Brad’s main priority is product development, though he is involved in every aspect of the company from sourcing to manufacturing to packaging design and more, to ensure only the highest quality ingredients and best practices are utilized to create superior offerings.
