History
In 1939, Paolo Sartori brought his Italian heritage to Wisconsin and founded Sartori Cheese. He was an Italian immigrant from humble beginnings with an entrepreneurial spirit who learned the business of cheesemaking before spending his life savings to co-found the company. Leadership passed through generations: Joe Sartori (1957–1986) perfected classic Italian cheese recipes; Jim Sartori (1986–2020) guided the company to focus on American Originals like BellaVitano® and MontAmoré®; and Bert Sartori (2020–present) has focused on sharing the award-winning cheese globally while investing in the team, creameries, and community and preparing the business for the 5th generation. The company's heritage has shaped core values of Family, Commitment, Authenticity, Ingenuity, Integrity, and Humility.
