GOLDSBORO, NC – For 125 years, Pate Dawson Company has provided foodservice establishments along the east coast with the quality products they need to satisfy customers. Now the century-old distributor can add the world’s best beef to its portfolio.
Pate Dawson Company will now offer Certified Angus Beef ® brand products, which company executives believe will further existing relationships with customers as well as help to attract new ones.
“We see the Certified Angus Beef ® brand as the beef solution for our customers,” said Mac Sullivan, chief executive officer of Pate Dawson Company. “It offers the highest quality and consistency available, and is trusted around the world. All of our efforts will be directed toward showing our customers the value of serving the highest quality beef available.”
Mark Polzer, vice president of business development for the brand, says partnering with Pate Dawson is a natural fit, and believes the two entities are similar in their dealings with customers.
“The value system that the Pate Dawson family places on relationships with customers and employees is a perfect fit with the Certified Angus Beef ® brand,” said Polzer. “Pate Dawson has a desire to assist its customers in growing their business, and we’re very excited to partner with them. They’re a very unique company, and this makes perfect sense for us.”
Pate Dawson’s customer base is also excited about the new premium beef offering.
“We’ve used other quality steaks before, but found Certified Angus Beef ® brand products worked best for us,” said Ann McCurdy, owner of McCurdy’s on Moonlight Bay in Atlantic Beach, N.C., and a Pate Dawson customer for three and a half years. “Customers can tell the difference. They know they’ll always be getting a good steak, and we know we’ll always be sending out a good steak. There are never any worries on our part that our customers won’t be getting the best.”
