As you look across the rich farm land of the San Joaquin Valley in Central California, you can sense the rich heritage running through the fertile soil. It all started 60 years ago when Andy Caneza began making garlic deliveries in his station wagon along the bayous of New Orleans. Even as a young college student, he had no doubt that this family company would grow into one of the largest suppliers of quality garlic in the nation. After all, he built the foundation with all the right ingredients: Honesty, integrity, and hard work.

In 1949, Andy set up his first office as A&A Spice & Food Co. in his mother's basement and made garlic deliveries to local mom and pop stores. In the late 60s, Andy, his wife and six kids would travel thousands of miles across the U.S. every summer, calling on every grocery store along the way. One of the first chain stores to sign with Andy was HG Hill in Nashville.

A&A Spice & Food Co. established an office in Miami in the early 70s and renamed the company Spice World, Inc. The company values and product quality remained high and business kept growing. Spice World headquarters moved to Orlando in 1981. In 1990, Spice World opened another plant in California, giving the company coast-to-coast distribution and processing plants, and the ability to be eco friendly while providing the freshest supply of garlic to all 50 states. Today, with three generations of Canezas working side by side, Spice World has become the largest garlic supplier to supermarkets in the United States and Spice World products are available at all clubstores nationwide.
