Shamrock Foods Company

Shamrock Foods Company traces its origins to Shamrock Dairy, founded in 1922 in Tucson, Arizona by Irish immigrant W.T. McClelland and his wife Winifred with a few cows, a truck, and a dream. The company remains family-owned and is described as a nationally ranked, privately-held Forbes 500 Company with over 5,000 associates across the U.S. Its family of brands includes Shamrock Foods, described as the largest independent foodservice distributor in the West, and Shamrock Farms, a family-owned dairy. Additional brands include Shamrock Foodservice Warehouse restaurant supply stores, Gold Canyon Meat CO., Pier 22 Seafood CO., Markon produce, Four Leaf Roasters coffee, and Jensen Foods cooking oils.

Shamrock was founded in 1922 with 20 cows, a truck, and a dream. Irish immigrant W.T. McClelland and his wife Winifred founded Shamrock Dairy in 1922 in Tucson, Arizona with only a few cows, a truck, and a dream. The couple did all the milking, bottling and deliveries themselves, instilling their family values into the company and maintaining a close-knit culture as it grew. 100 years later, the McClelland family's hard work and perseverance, combined with the dedication of countless Shamrock associates, has transformed the still family-owned company into what it is today – a nationally ranked, privately-held Forbes 500 Company with over 5,000 associates across the U.S.
