Where does so much good food come from? Like other pioneering merchants and purveyors, Jacob Bunn migrated from the East Coast and was drawn to the Mississippi River trading towns of the new frontier. By 1840, the Bunn family had settled in Springfield, Illinois, the new state capital, and established a wholesale food business. The business thrived and young Abe Lincoln became the family’s lawyer as well as a good customer.

Five generations later, the Bunn family continues to offer products with the promise, "Quality Since 1840." Be assured, every delicious product available at Bunn Gourmet lives up to that standard! And now, thanks to the wonder of the Internet and online shopping, the uniquely good foods of Bunn Gourmet are available for your family every day.
