Normally, going direct to the source is the most efficient path. But not in the food industry. When ordering direct from suppliers, distributors have to deal with high minimums and keep track of orders across several suppliers, creating a logistical nightmare.
Dot Foods is the middle man your supply chain needs. Instead of worrying about each supplier’s minimums, purchase as much of each product line as necessary. We can ship multiple brands and temperatures all at once, delivering whatever your customers want all on one truck.
Whether you’re an independent wholesaler or broadline distributor, our redistribution model and array of solutions will add value to your business.
