YEADON, PA – November 17, 2025 – Philly’s Best Steak Company, a trusted name in authentic Philadelphia steak meat, has a new brand but the same story: nobody does authentic Philly steak like they do. The bold new look accompanies a stronger voice that will more clearly convey the things that have made the company a standout amongst competitors for more than three decades – an authentic, hand-trimmed product from a team that grew up in kitchens and knows the ins and the outs of the industry.

“We live in a no-nonsense town, and this new look reflects our city and the people here. When you bite into a cheesesteak made with Philly’s Best, folks should expect the true taste of Philadelphia, no corner cutting,” says Zafeiris Akranis, President of Philly’s Best Steak Co. “We have had huge growth over the last few years, but never compromised on our quality – a differentiator that is so important to us. If there’s one thing our customers should expect from us, it’s that we bring you Philly’s Best, and nothing less.”

Founded in 1995 by brothers-in-law, Ody Akranis and Steve Rafailidis, Philly’s Best is now run by the next-generation Akranis siblings – Zafeiris, Georgia, and Niko. The company has strengthened its presence throughout the United States, Canada and the Middle East by staying true to the values that drove the company since day one: craftsmanship, brotherly love, straight talk, and earned respect.

Now, Philly’s Best is reintroducing itself to the world. It’s sharpening its story. It’s honing its voice. And it’s happening at a time when the company is readying for significant expansion, including a new state-of-the-art facility coming online in 2026.

Recently named the Preferred Steak of the Philadelphia Phillies and following a key executive hire in Steven Folenius as Senior Vice President of Sales, Philly’s Best is putting a stake in the ground on what customers can and should expect from their steak supplier – craftsmanship, candor, and the best damn Philly steak meat money can buy.
