Founders Nick and Perry Sumas immigrated to the United States from Greece. The brothers started working at a produce stand in South Orange, New Jersey shortly after. Perry was a great athlete, and after living in the US for 6 years he went to an open tryout for the New York Yankees. He did so well that he was offered a minor league contract in Connecticut. Perry discussed this opportunity with his brother Nick, and they decided to tell the owner of the produce stand that Perry was going to leave to play baseball.
