People who care about where food comes from

DS Ofood was founded on a simple belief: great food begins with responsible sourcing. From our Iowa facility to professional kitchens across the Midwest, we're the team that connects the farm to the plate — with integrity at every step.

From Schleswig, Iowa to kitchens everywhere

DS Ofood grew out of a conviction that the supply chain between livestock farmers and professional kitchens was broken — too many middlemen, too little transparency, and too much lost quality along the way.

Operating from our USDA-inspected facility in Schleswig, Iowa, we built a vertically integrated model that lets us work directly with quality-focused livestock producers and deliver chef-ready marinated meats with full traceability from source to cut.

Today, we partner with chefs, food service operators, and distributors across the Midwest — offering not just products, but a relationship built on trust, consistency, and a shared passion for food done right.
