History
Headquarters in Pascoag, Rhode Island

Stefano Dukcevich and his wife, Carolina, escaped Croatia after World War II and settled in Trieste, Italy, where they learned the process of curing (food preservation) charcuterie.[1] Carolina made pork sausages and Stefano sold them to local restaurants. By the 1950s, Stefano and Carolina had built one of the larger salumerias in Northeast Italy.[2]

Stefano and Carolina’s son, Vlado Dukcevich, joined the family business in the 1960s. In 1976, he brought the company to the United States, settling in Pascoag, Rhode Island. Daniele, Inc. now sells to delis and supermarkets throughout the country, and exports to Canada, Latin America and several countries in Asia.

Daniele, Inc. is in its third generation of ownership with Vlado’s sons, Stefano and Davide Dukcevich.
