Service connects local restaurant operators
with fresh food at wholesale prices
DALLAS, April 5,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Kroger's Dallas Division is
making it simpler for local restaurants to keep their
customer-favorite items on the menu. Known for providing the
freshest food at a great value, the grocer is launching Kroger
Restaurant Supply, exclusively in Greater
Dallas today.
Kroger Restaurant Supply offers an alternative to ordering in
large quantities that have highly variable pricing and require
deliveries on a set schedule. This service offers competitive
wholesale pricing, opportunities to purchase items by the case or
unit and seven-day-a-week delivery.
"Supply chain bottlenecks are impacting nearly every restaurant
across the country – this opportunity comes at a great time for
small and independent restaurants," said Corey Mobley, Executive Director of the North
Texas Region of the Texas Restaurant Association. "We're proud to
work with Kroger to strengthen our industry."
"Running a restaurant has always been difficult – and today it
feels like it's harder than ever," said Jay
Scherger, Director, Kroger
Technology & Digital/E-Commerce Accelerator. "This new
service will bring our fresh assortment directly to regional
businesses – all at consistent prices, product availability and
delivery cadence they can count on."
Regional restaurants, bakeries and catering companies are
invited to take part in this service that offers free next-day
delivery on all orders of $250 or
more. Businesses can order by midnight and receive next-day
deliveries seven days a week.
"Like our resident shoppers, we know our commercial customers
want options and solutions that offers fresh food, consistent
pricing and reliability," said Keith
Shoemaker, President, Kroger Dallas Division. "When our DFW
restaurants think food, we want them to think Kroger. We look
forward to providing this new offering and extension of our overall
grocery ecosystem."
Interested organizations can learn more and start their first
order at www.kroger.com/restaurantsupply. Businesses must submit an
EIN and Texas state tax ID to
begin an order.
