About Giuseppe’s Market & Ippolito's Seafood
Giuseppe’s Market, and its sister location, Ippolito’s Seafood, trace their roots back to 1919, when Giuseppe Ippolito arrived in America with a vision. Starting with a humble seafood pushcart, he aimed to blend his ancestral traditions with the ideals of the American Dream. Determined to offer fresh seafood at reasonable prices with exceptional service, Giuseppe saved diligently for a decade to realize his dream. In 1929, his aspirations materialized as Ippolito’s Seafood opened its doors for the first time.
Today, Giuseppe’s and Ippolito’s stand as revered institutions in Philadelphia, synonymous with quality and value. Upholding Giuseppe’s original ethos, we remain dedicated to delivering unparalleled service and premium seafood at accessible prices. With the next generation of the Ippolito family at the helm, Giuseppe’s Seafood is poised to carry forward its legacy into the future. Just as those before us, we are committed to pursuing excellence in all that we do.
