We serve independent grocery stores, tiendas, restaurants, and specialty markets across 12 states , moving over $29 million in product annually — and we're just getting started. We carry a wide range of Latin and international food products that serve communities across the Southeast, Midwest, and beyond.

Our team is tight-knit, hardworking, and driven by a genuine passion for the people and businesses we serve. We don't operate like a corporation. We operate like a family.

Every person here matters, every relationship counts, and every win is celebrated together.
