About Monterey Mushrooms

We don't just grow mushrooms; we grow and develop people too! ~ Shah Kazemi Monterey Mushrooms is proud to provide fresh, locally grown mushrooms to your favorite grocery stores, restaurants, food manufacturers, and institutions nationwide. Founded in 1971, Monterey Mushrooms became a family-owned business when the company was purchased by Shah Kazemi, who began as an employee himself. Today, our 4,000 U.S. teammates are proud to grow more than 200 million pounds of fresh mushrooms yearly. Our humble family-owned business has been enhancing people’s lives for over 50 years. We have locations across the U.S., Mexico, and parts of Europe. In addition to fresh mushrooms, the company offers mushroom products packed in cans, jars, and in frozen sauces. The company's biotech business serves other mushroom growers through its spawn supplier, Amycel, and nutritional supplement provider Spawn Mate.
