Mariusz Kolodziej (born October 3, 1966) is a Polish-American entrepreneur and boxing promoter, living and working in the United States.
Mariusz Kolodziej was born on October 3, 1966 in Rzeszów, Poland, as a son of Adolf and Aleksandra. He spent his early childhood in the small town of Błażowa, Poland, where he attended elementary school. His mother Aleksandra, as a director of a local high school, always emphasized the importance of good education. His father Adolf, who ran several different businesses at that time, focused on teaching his son the value of hard work. After graduating high school, Kolodziej applied to the prestigious Naval Academy in Gdynia, Poland. He was accepted in 1985, and began his four-year adventure with the Navy that included studying both in Poland and in the former Soviet Union. After leaving the Naval Academy in 1989, he decided to continue his educational experience. He moved back to Rzeszow, and started his Master’s program at the UMCS Law School.
Kolodziej has been a resident of Saddle River, New Jersey.
Following his law and administration studies in his homeland Poland, he emigrated to New York City at the age of 24, and earned his starting capital in the real estate business. Having been exposed to the fine art of bread making in his father’s bakery in Poland, Kolodziej acquired the passion for and understanding of this craftsmanship at a very young age. His enthusiasm for the trade escalated each year, as did the desire to start a bakery of his own. Kolodziej was able to realize his dream in 1996 on the shore of the Hudson River in Jersey City, NJ. He analyzed the market in New York and decided in favor of a specialty European-style bakery adapted to the requirements of the American food service companies with their indulgent sandwich culture and aimed at the taste profile of New York consumers. With time, it became the sole supplier of bread to many upscale restaurants and hotels in New York City, and the entire East Coast. Hudson Bread artisan bakery, now located in North Bergen, NJ creates over 350 different kinds of bread daily. Kolodziej created many of the recipes himself, finding inspirations during his world travels.
