Omero Del Papa, Sr., came to Galveston, Texas as an Italian immigrant who believed in the American Dream. He had little in the way of money or possessions. All he really had was the enduring belief that in America anyone could succeed with honesty and hard work. He was right. The company he founded, which would evolve into today’s Del Papa Distributing, is now over 100 years old, and his good name is instilled in our employees across the Texas Gulf Coast. That name still speaks of old fashioned values: honesty, integrity, work ethic. If anything, these ideals have grown stronger over the course of a century.
