Legacy Foodservice Alliance, with headquarters in Richmond, has announced the addition of eight distributor members. Led by industry veterans Stephen Push, Donald Hughes, Deb Winter, and Bob Staples, Legacy Foodservice is the newest distributor procurement and marketing group in the foodservice distribution landscape. “Our strategy of maintaining a high level of group participation by building a network of carefully selected supply and distribution companies that share our philosophy continues to be borne out,” says Push.
The most recent wave of Founding Distributor Members to commit to Legacy includes:
D’Oro Foods, aka Dom’s, Malden, MA
Freskeeto Frozen Foods, Inc., Ellenville, NY
Frank’s Wholesale Foods, Inc., Whitney Point, NY
Magnolia Beef Co., Inc., Elizabeth, NJ
Mathew’s Prime Meats Corp., West Babylon, NY
Quality Food St. Croix, St. Croix, USVI
Trichilo Foods, Inc., Carbondale, PA
Ziggy’s Finest, Washington, DC
This group brings the total number of distributor locations that have become part of the Legacy family to 41. “We’re thrilled to pass this milestone in our growth,” says Push. “All along, we had hoped to attract 40 distributor locations by the end of 2010. To achieve this goal in just over eight months, nearly four months ahead of schedule, is validation that the Legacy vision resonates with many distributors.” The group began accepting distributor members in December, 2009.
