ABOUT US
The S&K / Zeco Story
In 2004, Ross and Tammy Nitta moved from Hawaii to Arizona with their two daughters, Shari and Kelli. Ross’s vast knowledge of operating supermarkets from his family’s business in Hawaii convinced him that he wanted to start his own business with the same entrepreneurial spirit here in Arizona. Using the first letters of his daughters’ names, S & K Sales became the new business. S & K would soon grow to be the largest distributor and packer of cooking oils in the Southwest USA.
In 2013, inventor Conrad Canter and his wife Nancy introduced the one of a kind Zeco Filtration machine to the Nitta’s. Seizing the opportunity, Ross and Tammy invited Conrad and Nancy to become partners at S & K Sales. From this new invention combined with an oil distribution system, the Zeco Oil Depot / Oil Management Program was born. The phrase “BETTER OIL…BETTER FOOD” would soon become the slogan for S & K Sales.
In 2018, S & K Sales brought Matt McMahon on as president. Matt was a long-time restaurant entrepreneur from NYC to AZ. Capitalizing on Matt’s 40 years of leadership in the restaurant industry, S & K would expand its growth potential nationwide.
