Formaggio Kitchen has been an institution in Cambridge, Massachusetts for nearly 50 years – “a gourmand’s paradise” doubling as a neighborhood grocer. Nationally, we are best known for our cheese selection, which includes many exclusive items imported directly from farms in Europe. Locally, we are equally well known for our kitchen and bakery production including sandwiches, panini and nightly dinners as well as cakes, cookies and a variety of other sweets – all made in house, from scratch and using the best (often local) ingredients. We also stock a wide range of other delicious foodstuffs, including: charcuterie, produce, baked goods, prepared foods, coffee, tea, chocolates, bread, sweets, honey, preserves, wine, beer, olive oil, vinegar and other pantry staples.
Formaggio Kitchen's buyers work hard to bring our customers the best products from around the world, and the Stockist Team ensures that the products are stocked, rotated and properly labeled. Daily tasks will include restocking of store shelves, receiving shipments of product to our shop, as well as assisting with order taking and running as needed. Also important are strong organizational and communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work collaboratively with all members of our team.
