Add a timeless cheese plate to your menu.

From c-stores to fine dining, a cheese selection added to your menu (with a little help from Native Maine) will allow your profits to bloom.

Native Maine has more in-stock, wholesale cheese selections than any other specialty food company in Maine! We distribute tens of thousands of pounds of cheese annually! We have the cheese selection and the knowledge necessary to help you design and implement more cheese sales. Just ask for our help!

Sandwich Shops, Pizza Parlors & C-Stores

Use the “Grab & Go” sections of your coolers to offer your customers a quick and convenient snack or dessert cheese option. Clamshell containers filled with simple proven cheeses that have mass appeal make this a winning side dish.

Italian Food stores: A hunk of hard Taleggio or Piave Vecchio, a wedge of soft Ricotta Salata and a thick slice of Sharp Provolone with a handful of sliced Pepperoni, a few black olives and a sprig of fresh grapes and you have a unique and profitable “side” ready to go!

Greek Food Stores: Use some nice cubed Feta; some mixed Greek olives, three or four Pepperoncini peppers and a small cup of honey and wah-lah! Fortunatus!

Family Dining

Cheese can be a wonderful appetizer or dessert for all ages and palates. For family dining establishments we suggest keeping your cheese offering very simple!  A few fried mozzarella sticks (in-stock at Native Maine) with a classic red dipping sauce will appeal to kids of all ages. Toss in a few cubes of sharp cheddar, some flavored jack cheese cut in triangles and lots of fresh, in season fruits like strawberries, grapes or melons. Don’t overlook cheese spreads here as well. Native Maine has some locally made cheese spreads that shine here. Let us show you how to make cheese profitable!

Fine Dining

The diverse cheese selection at Native Maine will exceed even the most discriminating chef’s palate. We have everything from the celebrated imported varieties to the better known regional cheeses and we even stock boutique Maine made cheeses. We have in-stock varieties of every cheese type and we carry all the pairings including nuts, dried fruits, baguettes, crostini, sweet pickles, honey, honeycomb, membrillo paste, and the list goes on!
