Broadline Food Distributor

Bible briefing · vendor shortlist coming

The broadline distributor is the single largest line item on most NYC restaurant cost sheets after labor, typically 28-35% of food cost-of-goods, carrying ten product categories under one PO: proteins, dairy, produce, frozen, dry/canned grocery, beverage, paper, chemicals, smallwares, and equipment. You contract one at opening and re-bid annually. The Sysco-Restaurant Depot $29.1B merger announced March 30, 2026 (closing Q3 FY2027) will reshape NYC pricing dynamics meaningfully, so locking in 2026 terms before consolidation completes matters.
