I started my career in the retail wine and liquor industry with the Ravetti family at Dave’s market on 3rd street as a stock boy after school at the young age of 13.

A few years later I was a sales clerk running the registers and by the time I was around 20 years old I was working with Carl Barbato and my eventual long time business partner Dan Ravetti at the newly opened Jug Shop at 2235 Polk Street.

After working 16 years I bought in as Co Owner in 1979 and Dan and I moved the Jug Shop to a new and improved large location at 1567 Pacific Ave.

Over the years the Jug Shop has provided a good life for our family. I’ve had the opportunity to work with my Sons, Sisters, and Nephews and had a lot of great people work for me that were like family. I made a lot of amazing friends in the industry. It truly was a great ride up until my retirement in 2015 when I was there to proudly celebrate our 50th Anniversary in business.

Throughout all the years I never had to operate the business during or experience the effects a Global Pandemic.

We moved the business twice before, but never to a temporary location and always to improved dynamics, never to a diminished and devastating scenario.

This year marks our 60th year in business and we are fighting to keep the San Francisco tradition going.

If you are in a position to contribute and help save our family legacy business we would greatly appreciate your support!
