About

Born in 1902 Dominic Palumbo the founder of Palumbo’s Meat Market became an immigrant from Italy as a child. He started out working in the coal mines of the Penfield area. Teaching himself the butchering trade in his own back yard after falling ill from the mining environment, Dominic soon earned a reputation in the DuBois area as the local butcher. In 1927 Dominic opened the doors at 343 West Long ave. in DuBois for Business. Eventually his three sons Ted, Tom, and Joe would become part of the business. Then in 1980 Joe bought the entire business and expanded it by adding a full size sausage, curing and smoking kitchen. Operations moved across the street, and continued to grow. Working with his father from a young age, as his father had done too, Joe (LeRoy) Jr. became a stock holder in what is now Palumbos Meats of DuBois Inc. in 2001.
