A trailblazer and entrepreneur in the food industry for over 35 years, Mitch Berliner has been instrumental in making the Washington, DC, area a world-class food market. He started with a gourmet-to-go concept in 1971 and then founded Berliner Foods in 1974. After it was acquired in 1985, he opened Berliner Specialty Distributors and, later on, Central Farm Markets and MeatCrafters with his wife, Debra Moser.
