"After 30 years in corporate America, I walked away from a comfortable career in commercial printing of high-end cosmetic and pharmaceutical packaging in search of a new lifestyle and a new challenge. With no restaurant experience or culinary background, my wife and I bought Jackson's Old Chatham House in Old Chatham, NY. Iggy Vardi continues his journey as he sat down with Food & Beverage Magazine."
"From Boardroom to Barroom: Making the Leap The transition from corporate executive to restaurant owner wasn't something I planned. For three decades, I'd built a successful career in the commercial printing industry, specializing in luxury packaging for cosmetic and pharmaceutical companies. I had the corner office, the steady paycheck, and all the trappings of corporate success. But something was missing."
A corporate executive left a 30-year career in commercial printing of luxury cosmetic and pharmaceutical packaging to pursue a new lifestyle and challenge. With no restaurant experience, he and his wife bought Jackson's Old Chatham House in Old Chatham, NY. The purchase was motivated by passion when third-generation owners decided to move on after decades of community service. The buyer felt a unique sense of community, warmth, and authentic human connection upon entering the tavern. Jackson's is a Hudson Valley institution for over 80 years, housed in a nearly 200-year-old building that once served as Cornelius Roosevelt's store and a stop on the Boston-Albany route.
