From an early age, sitting on the lap of my grandfather, Nicola Russo, I learned the beauty of Italian food and family. I am Jason Brandon Grant, a second-generation Italian American, fervently dedicated to preserving the Italian dining experience that my grandfather so generously shared with me.

Welcome to Medici Importers Global, founded with the express purpose of importing from the home country exclusive, high-end foods, ingredients, and wines for use by both home cooks and professional chefs. I have partnered with growers, manufacturers, producers, and vintners who are dedicated to preserving the gastronomic heritage of the Italian people and land. I have visited and experienced the Tuscan fields. I have held the vines and rich Italian soil that are the birthplace of the incomparable ingredients that Medici offers. I have met the incredibly dedicated and gifted artisans whose products Medici is now able to share with you. 

With more than 25 years as a food and beverage professional, I look forward to partnering with you on building solutions around menu development, product placement, and how to enhance your business success through each guest’s experience. Our future depends on the delight and success of our customers and partners. Whether you are a neighborhood restaurant or a regional retailer, you will be treated with respect, dignity, and gratitude.

I look forward to working with you.

I am now and always will be, at your service.
