History

The Schaul Story

Our company started in the basement of a simple home in Niles, IL. It is there our founder, Peter Schaul, installed his copper boiler and began cleaning, dressing and selling fresh poultry. From there, Schaul’s became known for the highest grade of poultry and meat products both in terms of freshness and quality. Schaul’s serviced both the retail social market and the corporate market with a wide array of gourmet food products. Our products were sold in a raw state, ready to cook. Over the course of two years in the early 1980’s, both our social and corporate clientele inquired about purchasing our quality food products already cooked, hot and ready to serve. Little did we know this would launch us into the catering business.

The demand for our quality foods, cooked ready to serve was so great, that in the early 1990’s, we closed our retail meat markets and focused our efforts into catering. After receiving our catered foods for a few years, our customers asked us to provide other related party services, such as tents, tables, chairs, linens, music, theme décor and props, wait staff and other related event services. Hence, we became a one stop shop for our customers.

Today, Schaul’s Signature Cuisine & Events has provided quality cuisine and related event services for all types and sizes of memorable occasions ranging from weddings and other important family gatherings to corporate marketing and/or employee events. We have also produced fund raising events for non profit organizations. We invite you to browse through our website, look for your special occasion, let your imagination run wild and together let’s begin to design the menu, gather the other related services and plan your glorious event. As our motto states…..the possibilities are endless!
