Profiles

Vanee Foods Company, Inc., is a manufacturer of a variety of food products, from canned entrees and gravies to dry mixes and soup bases. The company's products are marketed primarily through the foodservice and club store channels. Founded by Joseph and Adriana VanEekeren in 1950 in downtown Chicago, Vanee Foods is still family owned and operated. Today, there are eight family members involved in the day-to-day management of the company.

Vanee Foods also manufactures custom formulations for national and regional chain restaurants, and is a co-packer for several major food companies. Vanee Foods was involved in a major recall in 2014 after 3,156 pounds of turkey base was mislabeled omitting contents which included milk, a known allergen.
