The Germack Story
Frank Germack Sr. originally came to America through New York City's
Ellis Island when he was just a boy. While growing up in the United States,
he longed for a taste of his homeland, in particular, the pistachio nut that
had long been a staple in Greece, Turkey and throughout the Middle East.
So, in an attempt to fill this noticeable void, Frank Germack Sr. moved
to Detroit and started Germack Pistachio Company in 1924.
The company reigns were eventually handed to Frank Germack Jr.,
who had worked with his father closely after graduating from law school.
Under his leadership, the Germack Pistachio Company evolved into a
multi-million dollar business with a considerable international presence.
Frank Jr.'s stellar reputation as an industry leader enabled the Germack
Pistachio Company to excel and compete with large conglomerates that
were steadily entering the nut processing market. He became known
internationally as an expert and was invited to share his knowledge
of the business with other countries that sought entrance into the nut
growing and processing business.
Still located in Detroit's historic Eastern Market, the Germack Pistachio
Company has become synonymous over the years with hand-roasted
excellence and quality. When Frank Germack started his company over
70 years ago, he carried only a small line of nut products and other
Middle Eastern grocery items. Today, Germack Pistachio Company
has a full line of nuts, dried fruits, nut mixes and candies. We also carry
a specialty holiday line that includes gift packages in all sizes.
