igourmet helps food lovers discover the world of specialty items that exist beyond what is commonly available.

We champion small and mid-sized specialty food producers and help them tell their stories.

We cater to consumers who want assurance that their foods are not only supremely delicious, but also wholesome and genuine.

We live by the edict that in order for a food gift to be called a gourmet gift, it must contain items that are truly gourmet.

We inspect, inventory and fulfill substantially all of the thousands of products you see on our website in our dedicated warehouse near Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.

We handle customer service in-house in Pennsylvania and cherish each and every one of our customers.

We believe that cheeses, meats and other specialties produced by artisans using techniques that date back thousands of years have proven the test of time, regardless of what any recent “unbiased study” or “fad dietician” might say.

Safe, Dependable Shipping with FreshwaveTM
Many of igourmet's best products are perishable, necessitating some ingenuity in the delivery channel. Along with its suppliers, igourmet created the FreshWave system. FreshWave incorporates a styrofoam-lined shipping chest that is chilled by refrigerant gel packs. In ambient conditions of up to 100 degrees Fahrenheit, FreshWave keeps perishables cool for up to 48 hours while in transit. The system, recently introduced after two years in development, enables the company to sell its entire product line all year round.
