I started this business in 1993 and more than 30 years later, I'm still here, still showing up, and still proud of every client relationship we've built along the way.

Ricard's Inc. grew out of what was originally Ricard's Paper & Chemical, a partnership I committed to from day one. In 2016, I bought out my partner and renamed the company Ricard's Inc., marking a new chapter that reflected not just a name change, but a broader vision for what this business could be.

At our core, we are a product-based company serving the food service, catering, bakery, bars and commercial cleaning industries throughout New Orleans. We supply disposable food service items, catering and bakery essentials, bar supplies, janitorial chemicals, and paper products. The behind-the-scenes supplies that keep businesses running smoothly every single day. I've always believed that small accounts matter just as much as big accounts. That's why we offer small quantity packs specifically for the local mom & pop businesses throughout our community, because every neighborhood shop, corner restaurant/bar, and family-run operation deserves access to the same quality products without being forced into bulk commitments they don't need.

We've also grown into property management, providing janitorial services and full-service management for short-term, mid-term, and long-term rental properties right here in New Orleans. It's a natural extension of who we are, a company that handles things so our clients don't have to.

New Orleans isn't just where I do business. It's home. And everything we do at Ricard's Inc. is built on that sense of responsibility to this community and the people in it.
