We’re Not in Mason Yet: But We’re Coming!

A food distributor buys from producers and sells in volume to businesses such as restaurants, stores, schools and healthcare kitchens. Many do not sell to the public. Ask the business whether it serves your type of customer.

Ask about minimum order size, delivery days and area, product range, how cold and frozen goods are kept, how to return damaged items, and what to do when an item is out of stock.

Many require a business account and some paperwork. Ask what they need from you, and whether they offer credit terms. Pros Around does not hold accounts or orders.

Ask which permits or licences apply to its work in your state, and ask to see them. Ask how it handles recalls and storage records. Pros Around does not check food safety.

Ask the business for its current catalogue and price list. Prices can change often and may depend on order size. Pros Around does not hold menus or prices, so check with the business.

Only customers who contacted a pro through Pros Around can review them, using a link that works once. Pros can reply but cannot delete a review, and reviews are never sold. An admin hides a review only if it breaks our rules, and the reason is recorded.

By the plan a pro has chosen, then a Featured badge, then review quality. A higher plan can place a pro higher; between pros on the same plan, reviews decide. Anything paid for is labelled.
