Building customer relationships requires time, effort and sincerity

For Sysco, it began with a promise to assist food service providers in providing consumers with solutions for meals consumed away from home.
 
Many solid customer relationships have been nurtured along the way, countless dining trends and meal alternatives have evolved, and today the decision to consume meals prepared away from home is as much necessity as choice.
 
In 1977 Sysco surpassed its competitors to become the leading supplier to 'meals-prepared-away-from-home' operations in North America. Since then, the industry it serves has expanded from $35 billion to approximately $210 billion.

Today, Sysco has sales and service relationships with more than 400,000 customers and remains committed to helping them succeed in the food service industry and satisfy consumers' appetites.

Operating from 161 locations throughout the contiguous United States and portions of Alaska, Hawaii, and Canada, today Sysco's product lines are as diverse as the 46,300 employees who support its daily operations. They include not only the ingredients needed to prepare meals, but also numerous ancillary preparation and serving items.

As a result, Sysco can make a difference in its customers' lives and the success of their businesses.
