US Foods to acquire New York business

ROSEMONT - US Foods Holding Corp., one of America's leading food service distributors, said Monday it has agreed to acquire Renzi Foodservice, a distributor located in Watertown, New York.

The acquisition, which is the first for the company since April 2020 and the first under CEO Dave Flitman's leadership, will allow US Foods to further expand its reach into central upstate New York, where the company does not have a distribution center, the company said.

Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

Family-owned for two generations, Renzi Foodservice has more than $180 million in annual revenue and serves more than 2,300 independent restaurants, health care facilities, schools, government organizations, convenience stores and other customers.

Renzi Foodservice will continue to operate in the 110,000-square-foot facility where it conducts business today.

"We look forward to welcoming the Renzi team to US Foods as we continue to deliver on our long-range plan and enhance our position with new and existing customers throughout the region," said Flitman.
