US Foods is one of the largest foodservice distributors in the United States, supplying roughly 250,000 customer locations nationwide. The company delivers food and related supplies — including fresh, frozen, and dry food products, kitchen equipment, disposables, and cleaning supplies — to operators who prepare meals for consumers, primarily independent restaurants, healthcare facilities, and hospitality customers. US Foods operates through a single broadline distribution segment, running a network of over 70 distribution centers and 6,500 trucks, plus over 90 CHEF'STORE cash-and-carry locations. US Foods makes money by capturing the spread between what it pays suppliers and what it charges customers. The two core margin levers are growing gross profit per case and keeping operating expense per case growth below gross profit per case growth. Private label products (Exclusive Brands) are roughly twice as profitable per case as national brands, and private label penetration with independent restaurant customers has reached roughly 54%. US Foods sells through a field-based direct sales force of over 4,000 associates, as well as through group purchasing organizations, which account for roughly 27% of net sales. The company is growing its Pronto small-truck delivery program, which offers more frequent, smaller deliveries in dense markets and generated over $1B in sales in FY25. US Foods also operates a digital ordering platform, MOXē, which now has 78% independent restaurant e-commerce penetration.
