How Do You Use A Food Distributor?
Food distributors supply wholesale food and restaurant supplies to restaurants and other commercial dining facilities. Some distributors specialize and sell only one type of product such as dairy or bakery items. Food distributors typically deliver the product directly to the customer. You can place orders by phone, online or by fax. Contact the food distributors that service your area, and ask for a current product and pricing list. You will want to compare prices and see which vendor offers the items you need. Discuss the terms for lines of credit with each vendor. Some vendors offer lines of credit; others may require prepayment, payment on delivery or delayed payment. You will want to know how and when you will pay before ordering. Arrange a scheduled delivery date and time. Food distributors typically have regular delivery routes. While they cannot guarantee the exact time of the delivery, they can estimate. You want to arrange this in advance so it does not conflict with your bus
