The. average Washington house
wife who makes or buys small
quantities of mayonnaise does not
think OF this dainty food product
In terms OF tons. but that is the
only way Harry Karpel handles it.
Every day In the year, except
Sunday, Harry Karpel president Of
the Harry Karpel Company, food
distributors, with offices between
Thirteenth and Fourteenth, G and
H streets northeast, distributes five
tons of Gelfand's mayonnaise in the
National Capital and contiguous
territory.
Karpel is exclusive distributor
for this popular product and many
other food speciaIties. Every day
he receives shipment OF five tons
of Gelfand's from the factory and
within twenty Four hours the entire
quantity is on the shelves OF local
grocers and others handling mayor
llaise. Delivery is speeded up by
the use OF nine high-powered trucks
and cars.
The popularity OF GeIfand's
mayOnnaise is attested by the fact
that every two weeks a carload,
or 5000 pounds. is shipped to
Boston and a similar quantity to
Pittsburgh. The output Of the
company is ten or twelve carloads
week. The mayonnaise and other
Gelfand products are made under
