Dot developed the redistribution concept in the food supply chain, and has worked hard to become the industry leader. Since 1960, we have been harnessing new technologies to provide better service to make food manufacturers and our distributor customers more profitable.

We grew to #1 by innovating, particularly in information technology. Our e-commerce web-site, the Dot Expressway, was one of the first in the industry to allow customers to search for item information and pricing. We also lead the industry in electronic communications, using industry exchanges and electronic data interchange (EDI) to reduce transaction costs.

Our experience has shown that communicating electronically can lower costs and improve service.
