    Armen Petrossian is the President of Petrossian Fine Foods. Armen is the son of Mouchegh who, with his brother Melkoum, began importing Russian caviar to Paris in the 1920's.

    Some of Petrossian caviar offerings include farm-raised sturgeon. Currently, Beluga Caviar, perhaps the most prized variety of caviar, is illegal in the US as their numbers have plummeted.
