The business first got its start about a century ago when Lawrence Duma came over from Romania and put down roots. Four generations later, the family business is still going strong... and the fifth generation is lending a helping hand now, too!

This is a place where you can stock up on familiar goodies while also searching for that perfect ingredient you never knew you needed.

Fresh meat is prepared without preservatives, and everything under the Duma Meats brand is prepared right there on-site. These are flavors many Clevelanders trust, and they're so fresh that you should freeze the meat within 24 hours if you're not planning on preparing it.

This is where you can come for ground beef, sausage, alligator, bison, crawfish... truly, you never know what awaits you.

Bundles allow you to get a massive amount of meat in one easy visit. You can buy half a hog, for example, which comes out to roughly 100 lbs. of meat including ham, pork chops, spare ribs, and sausage. My grandparents used to keep a massive freezer out in the garage to purchase half a hog or beef hind quarters... it made summer barbecues extra effortless, and Papa never had to break his stride on the grill to run to the store for more.

Plus, the little market is just adorable.

In addition to being practical, this charming storefront feels like a small town attraction. They decorate with seasonal accoutrements, have fun accessories and statues inside, and just make the entire experience a ton of fun.

If you plan a visit, maybe eat a big meal before you head inside... that might help you from going wild with the jerky and beef sticks!
