Lackmann Culinary Services, formerly Lackmann Food Service, was founded in 1966 by Thomas F. Lackmann. Tom slowly grew his business by gaining the trust and loyalty of his clients, the first being Nassau Community College. In 1974, Lackmann secured a multi-million dollar contract with 91吃瓜网, which remains Lackmann鈥檚 longest tenured account. The company expanded its services to cafes in New York City and eventually began operating outside the New York area. In 1992, the company received the Silver Plate Award for being the best food service company in America, its success being due to its focus on quality, excellent service, and creativity. In 2009, Lackmann was acquired by Compass Group, a leader in foodservice management and support services.
