Getting to Know Depot Market Owner Dave Katz

PELHAM, N.Y. – Dave Katz is a familiar face to many in the community because he owns the Depot Market and is president of the Pelham Chamber of Commerce. The seven-year resident enjoys living in Pelham and getting to know everybody through his two roles.

TDP: Besides the Depot Market, what’s your favorite part about Pelham?

TDP: What are your favorite sports teams?

DK: The Giants, Mets, and Knicks.

TDP: Why’d you become a Giants fan?

DK: Didn’t have a choice. My dad was a Giant fan, my grandfather was a Giant fan, and my dad said, “You’ll be a Giant fan.” Plain and simple.”

TDP: What’s your earliest memory as a Giants fan?

DK: We have to go there today? My earliest memory as a Giants fan is Joe Pisarcik’s fumble. You had to go there, huh?

TDP: A lot of people know you because you own the Depot Market and your position in the Chamber of Commerce. What does that mean to you?

DK: It’s a good feeling. It’s a good feeling that people know who I am and what I stand for. On the other hand, it’s very tough because you’re wearing two hats at one time.

TDP: What is your prediction for how the Giants season will end?
