Who owns Zingerman’s Deli?
Starting from the original deli, Zingerman’s Community of Businesses (ZCoB) has expanded to nine Ann Arbor based businesses with over 500 total employees. Each business has shared ownership between original founders Paul Saginaw and Ari Weinzweig, and the managing partners who started each business. Zingerman’s Delicatessen opened in March 1982 in a historic building near the Ann Arbor Farmers Market. The Deli was founded by Paul Saginaw and Ari Weinzweig, two friends who dreamt of creating a traditional Jewish deli that would bring very special foods to Ann Arbor in a way that was unique to them.And in the process we’ve gained a reputation for sourcing unique, full flavored, traditionally made foodstuffs from all over the world. In essence, and with due modesty, Zingerman’s has become an Ann Arbor institution.
