THE QUICK READ
CG Family Foods runs a USDA-inspected frozen meal plant on Main Street in Agawam, Massachusetts, producing chicken pot pies, quiches, and meat lasagna under its Country Chef and Priscilla's labels. The Carando family founded the business in 1950 with recipes they brought from Italy, and it is now in its third generation. It is a small facility handling both ready-to-eat and not-ready-to-eat chicken and pork lines that ship frozen to stores nationwide. The company rebranded from Carando Gourmet Frozen Foods in 2023, but the crew and the product lines stayed the same.
