"We switched from Sysco two years ago and haven't looked back. The pricing is better, the service is more personal, and when we have an emergency need, they actually answer the phone. For an independent restaurant, that matters."

What products does Value Source supply?
We supply a full range of food service products including disposables (napkins, plates, cutlery, to-go containers), proteins (beef, pork, poultry, seafood), custom-printed products (cups, napkins, bags with your logo), and eco-friendly alternatives. We focus on warehouse-direct pricing to help independent restaurants, caterers, and food trucks compete with larger operations.
What's the difference between hub, route, and freight delivery?
Hub delivery is available for businesses near our Atlanta distribution center with same-day or next-day service and lower minimums ($3,000).
