Founded in 1966, Butler’s Pantry was the dream of Richard L. Nix, Sr. and his wife Anita. It was their desire to provide the most creative and innovative catering solutions to the community in which they lived, worked and loved. During the early years, Butler’s Pantry could be credited with introducing such iconic dishes as pasta con broccoli, chicken tetrazzini and even the first boxed lunch (known then as a Beauty Box, delivered to beauty parlors around St. Louis).
Fast forward 50 years and Butler’s Pantry, now at the hands of Richard Nix, Jr. has far exceeded the dream Richard & Anita conceived. With over 500 employees and more than 40 venues in their portfolio, Butler’s Pantry continues to challenge industry standards.
