Why Work with a Foodservice Distributor
8/5/2026

Running a restaurant or foodservice operation means juggling countless responsibilities every day. From managing inventory and controlling costs to delivering a great guest experience, every decision matters.
If you're currently purchasing products through multiple suppliers, making store runs, or sourcing ingredients independently, it may be worth considering the benefits of working with a foodservice distributor. Distribution can simplify your operation while giving you access to trusted products from brands like Simplot.
1. Convenient direct delivery
One of the biggest advantages of working with a foodservice distributor is having products delivered directly to your location.
Instead of spending valuable time coordinating with multiple suppliers or making trips to pick up products, distributors bring what you need straight to your door. This can help reduce administrative work, save time, and allow you to focus on what matters most...serving your customers.
Benefits include:
Fewer supplier relationships to manage
Simplified ordering and purchasing
Reliable delivery schedules
More time to focus on your business
2. Consistency you can count on
Customers return because they know what to expect from your menu. Consistent product quality and reliable ordering help make that possible.
Foodservice distributors provide a streamlined ordering process and help ensure products are available when you need them. By working through distribution, operators can often create more predictable purchasing routines and maintain menu consistency.
Benefits include:
Reliable ordering processes
Consistent product quality
Improved inventory planning
Greater confidence in day-to-day operations
3. Access to a wide variety of products
Foodservice distributors offer access to a broad portfolio of products from leading manufacturers, including Simplot.
Rather than sourcing products from multiple places, you can often find everything you need through a single distribution partner. This makes it easier to discover new menu solutions, maintain inventory, and access products that may not be available through retail channels.
Benefits include:
Access to thousands of foodservice products
Simplified purchasing
Opportunities to expand your menu
Availability of trusted brands like Simplot
