Keefe Commissary Network
   
 

Our History in Corrections


In 1975, Keefe Supply Company entered the correctional market by supplying single serve coffee packets to a Florida prison.

Soon to follow, Keefe pioneered the packaging evolution of products sold through correctional commissaries all over the country.

 

The first of many successes, Keefe began packaging instant coffee and Tang in sealed paper pouches, eliminating the presence and hassles associated with glass jars.

Since then, Keefe has served the correctional market exclusively and has been the industry leader and nation's largest provider in commissary products and services.

Keefe offers the finest quality of products, uniquely packaged for consumption by inmates, and unrivalled for depth, variety and innovation.

We currently offer over 2,500 products, ranging from snack food items to personal care products to clothing and electronics.  Keefe is the leading supplier of both name brand products as well as a manufacturer of private label goods.

Keefe maintains its own manufacturing facility and packages a variety of products such as Nescafe coffee, Tang Instant Breakfast Drink, private label brands such as E. Z. Digby, Snack Legends, Cactus Annie, Keefe Kitchens, and many more. Because of our commitment to quality and service, you can be sure that every Keefe product in your commissary is held to the highest standard.
 

Keefe's corporate office and first Distribution Center is headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, and has expanded its full service distribution services nationwide with regional distribution centers in Reno, Nevada (1990), Cleveland, Ohio (1991), Jacksonville, Florida (1993), Edison, New Jersey (1994), Dallas, Texas (1997), and Denver, Colorado (2001).  Our continued growth has led to the opening of service centers in Chesapeake, Virginia; Seattle, Washington; Atlanta, Georgia; Fontana, California; Walpole, Massachusetts, and St. Petersburg, Florida with more locations planned for the future. With so many locations, KCN's next day service helps customers meet their commissary needs.

Our membership with multiple organizations nationwide, such as The American Correctional Association, American Jail Association, NABCJ, ASCA, NCIA, and National Sheriffs' Association®, as well as many regional organizations, allows us to keep abreast of the issues facing our customers.  This knowledge helps us understand what is important to you and create systems to manage your commissary better.
