Fresno Food Distributor JD Food Breaks Ground On Project

JD Food, an independent food distributor, broke ground Monday on an expansion project that will nearly double the size of its workforce.

The $10.5 million expansion project at 4671 E. Edgar Ave. in southeast Fresno involves construction of a 65,000-square-foot food distribution and processing center. The first phase of the expansion is expected to be completed by May 30.

Mark Ford, president of the family-run JD Food, said business is booming and the company and its affiliate, Certified Meat Products, have outgrown their facilities near Maple and Commerce avenues.
