In the mid-1930’s, our founder, Michael Gagliardo, an Italian immigrant, opened a grocery store on  Chicago’s West Side. From there, he brought his son, Michael V. Gagliardo on board. Soon after they expanded operations by employing a can fabricating machine resurrected from a fire at the Continental Can Company. The father and son team rebuilt the machine, set it up in the basement of the grocery store, and formed the “Eagle Can Company”, which rapidly became a formidable supplier of cans to many local, immigrant-owned companies. When a shortage of cooking oil developed during World War II, the Gagliardos were able to secure a source, and the result was a flourishing oil packaging company, which became known as “Columbus Packing Company”.
