About Arena Provisions – Jacksonville, FL
Our Journey
Four Generations of Excellence
Arena Provisions in Jacksonville, FL is a family-owned supplier dedicated to bringing premium Boar’s Head products in Jacksonville FL to restaurants, delis, and businesses that value quality. Our tradition of excellence dates back over a century, rooted in a passion for fine meats and genuine customer service.
The Arena family’s story began in 1914, when Carlos Arena emigrated from Italy to the United States. With him, he carried generations of knowledge in custom butchery and artisanal meat preparation. Together with his son, Carlos established a thriving neighborhood meat market in New York City—quickly becoming a trusted source for families and businesses alike.
In 1991, Carlos’ grandson Frank carried the family legacy forward by founding Arena Provisions. Partnering with the Boar’s Head family in Brooklyn, New York, Frank built the company on the same foundation of quality, integrity, and service that had defined the Arena name for decades. As demand grew, he relocated the business to Florida in 2006, where it continues to thrive today.
Now based in Northeast Florida, Arena Provisions proudly supplies a wide range of Boar’s Head products in Jacksonville FL and the surrounding areas. Frank, his son John, and the entire Arena family remain committed to delivering the very best deli meats and cheeses, while also supporting their customers with hands-on product training, creative menu solutions, and reliable distribution.
