Co-owner Damian Rivera, originally from Guanajuato, Mexico, remembers the direct connection with the meat that was served at his family’s dinner table from his local butcher, or carincero. His goal is to create this same connection with food by launching and selling hand-crafted meat products plus catering services. Damian’s Quality Meats was awarded a Catalytic Investment Award in November 2018. Learn more about all awardees.
