here’s to

nient grab-and-go items and 
company’s brands, such as 
Grobbel’s Gourmet smoked 
meats and its line of premi-
um, sliced and prepackaged 
deli products.
“The new locations will 
offer a way for people to 
interact with the brands 
in an entirely new way,” 
Grobbel said. For example, 
“our kosher dill pickle line, 
Topor’s, will be available in 
the deli as well as the market.” 
He was referring to the 
popular pickle company 
started by the local Topor 
family in 1960. The naturally 
fermented, authentic kosher 
pickles are made at 2500 
Orleans Street, also in Eastern 
Market.
Sy Ginsberg’s Meat & Deli, 
another EW Grobbel acqui-
sition, “has been a leader in 
the Jewish deli business for 
over 30 years,” Grobbel said. 
Ginsberg remains active in 

promoting the wholesale meat 
brand he started in 1981. The 
Sy Ginsberg’s name is found 
on products available across 
the United States.
“With Sy’s help,” Grobell 
said, “we hope to raise aware-
ness to this market and high-
light some of the most iconic 
dishes and products a deli has 
to offer.”
