The Tammany Award was presented to Acquistapace’s Wine, Cheese & Markets, a St. Tammany business that demonstrates leadership and drive and advocates for the betterment of our community. Accepting the honor on behalf of the family-owned business were Steve, Adam and Erik Acquistapace. While the business dates back generations to the 1860s in New Orleans, it has been operating in St. Tammany since 1985 and has locations in Covington, Mandeville and Slidell with their flagship Covington location often referred to as the “Covington Town Square.” A leader in its industry with local, state, national and even international awards, Acquistapace’s has created and sustained jobs in St. Tammany, contributing to the local economy and giving back to the community through their donation of time, product and expertise, especially to non-profit organizations.
