WHO WE ARE
Chef-FOUNDED, CHEF-LED
Our Founder
President & Owner Brian Heider is a culinary school graduate and trained Chef. He transitioned from the restaurant industry to working with unique organizations in order to help them find Chefs and consult within their food programs. His goal was to combat the pricing model that food distributors often use to take advantage of organizations that might be at a disadvantage, due to the size of their food purchases.
Brian made it his mission and passion for the past 20 years to develop relationships with food distributors in order to help make a difference in niche food industries that simply needed the best pricing possible, while never having to worry about the idiosyncrasies of trucking and food distribution companies nationwide.

Our Approach
We are passionate about helping. Our primary focus is simply to bring savings and added service value to you so that your organization can grow. The more you grow, the more we all do!
Our Process
We negotiate exclusive pricing agreements with suppliers across many categories in order to help organizations save money on food cost no matter the size or location.
Our Promise
No fees to participate in our program. No long-term obligations. No off-limits products — if it’s in the food distributor’s catalog, it’s fair game for immediate savings on your invoice.
What Makes Us Unique?
Savings and services you can’t get anywhere else.
It may surprise you to learn we are the only organization in the nation that does what we do. We take enormous pride in the relationships that we have developed over the years with food distributors.
Our members are treated as a national account in the eyes of the food distributor. Think of us like an older brother. If you need a sounding board, we’re here for you.
You can call us any time and talk to an actual person who fully understands your business – get real ideas, real solutions, really fast.
