About Us

The Watertown Meat Center is located in the heart of Watertown, CT right across from the Watertown Library. It has been a staple in this town for over 33 years, always known for bringing its customers the best quality meats, deli, seafood & produce around. The current owners, Jessica and Carmine DiSapio Jr, took ownership on April 16, 2016.

Carmine Jr started in the grocery business when he was 14 years old working under his grandfather Pat, at Pats IGA in Wolcott.  In 1991, his mother and father opened Pat's Marketplace in Watertown, where Carmine was the produce manager until the fall of 2003.  From 2003 until this April, he has worked for his Uncles at Pat's IGA in Wolcott as their produce manager.  Now, Carmine and his wife, Jessica, have started a new venture together at the Watertown Meat Center.
They have three sons, Mitchell, Carmine III, and Jack.

Jessica, as well as her parents, were born and raised in Watertown and still lives in town with her husband and three sons.  Graduating from Watertown High School in 1990 and then from Central Connecticut State University with an Elementary Education degree in 1996. When the children were very small, Jessica did the bookkeeping for her father-in-law at Pat's Marketplace, getting her first and only experience in the grocery business until now.  In 2000, when her oldest was three, she took over her mother's preschool, Ledgewood Private Preschool, and relocated to 720 Thomaston Road.  In 2004, she opened at daycare in Thomaston, Ledgewood Too!. Jessica has many passions, she loves to work with children, she always loved volunteering in her children's schools, and ran the Watertown Lacrosse Association for 7 years.  ​She retired from her preschool in 2020.  Now she is able to concentrate on just one business instead of three with her husband by her side.

It's been six years now and we still love what we do! 

Thank you for choosing us and our incredible crew!
