Expansion in the state of Texas is in the works as Gordon Food Service® is tapping into a new market. The foodservice provider will be offering its retail service stores to customers, as six of its stores will be located in the greater Houston area to serve local restaurants, food operations, and the public.
“Gordon Food Service Store believes in the power of good food and its ability to bring people together and make moments special,” said Tim Grabar, President. “We are excited to open our doors to the greater Houston community and provide the chef-quality food products our stores are known for.”
Primarily designed to provide chef-quality food products to restaurant owners and foodservice operators, the new Gordon Food Service Stores will cater to home cooks. A large seasonal produce department will be a fixture of the new stores, with an assortment of market-direct items available.
As noted in a release, the new Gordon Food Service Stores are the first Texas locations and the most opened by the company at one time.
Each facility will employ an average of 40 full- and part-time team members and measure between 25,000 to 30,000 square feet in size. The decor, as the company explained, will be modern and fresh, with easy-to-navigate layouts for quick shopping.
