About Us

O’Brien Sales & Marketing has continuously operated since 1895, helping food manufacturers and brands grow through trusted retail relationships across the Midwest. What began as a traditional grocery brokerage has evolved into a full-service sales and marketing partner supporting brands across produce, deli, bakery, frozen, center store, meat, and seafood.

A Legacy Built Since 1895.

Obrien Sales and Marketing History

One of the last brokerage teams still working store level every day.

While many brokerage firms have consolidated into large national organizations, O’Brien continues to operate with a hands-on Midwest approach. Our retail field teams are actively working stores, supporting department managers, verifying execution, and helping brands stay connected to what’s happening at shelf level every day.
