Ben B. Schwartz & Sons Expands distribution to North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Missouri

Wholesale fresh produce distributor Ben B. Schwartz & Sons is expanding its distribution into the Midwest and the South, reaching states such as North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Missouri. 

While the company has been actively serving customers throughout the Midwest, Eastern, and Southeastern US for decades, this is the first time it has expanded operations into these states. 

“To maximize our growth in the past year, we looked at our current distribution map and focused on areas near and within our existing business to optimize those routes and serve new customers,” said Bill Loupeé, Chief Operating Officer at Ben B. Schwartz & Sons.

The company's service map expansion follows several new foodservice and midmarket wholesaler customer wins that Loupeé celebrated. 

“Securing these deals is a testament to the hard work of our sales team, identifying the right opportunities to serve more customers better and faster than ever before,” he added.
