Figi's Gift Catalog
Online! About 60 years ago a federal cheese inspector named
John Figi wanted to make Wisconsin's finest cheese available
through the mail. He sent 1,500 postcards peddling his Wisconsin
Aged Cheddar and received 43 orders! A great beginning! Just one
small setback, John didn't have "wheels" to get his goods to the
post office. So he borrowed a red coaster wagon from a friend...
and used it to deliver all 43 packages.
That's how it all began. The young entrepreneur and wife, Ann
sorted orders, cut 200 one-pound wheels and 70 one-pound blocks
of cheese on the kitchen table, sealing it in cellophane heated
on the stove, and penciling in the addresses. Dinner was usually
perched atop the finest Colby, Cheddar, or Swiss cheeses packed
high in the family refrigerator!
Our founder had very particular ideas about service and he based
every decision on this golden rule: "Sell good gifts, at good
prices with satisfaction guaranteed... no matter what! Follow
this rule and customers will come to you."
Today, we still use John Figi's creed as the yardstick to
measure our performance. Our commitment to your satisfaction is
undiminished, and after 60 years of good taste, it's clear
Figi's philosophy is a winner!
