In our 35 years of servicing the world’s greatest Chefs, we’ve certainly seen a lot. We’ve watched as classic restaurants

turn into outright legacies, we’ve seen young culinary minds shape the way we think about food. We’ve listened to Chefs

tell their stories, and we’ve watched as consumers became more curious about the quality of ingredients. We’ve seen

new trends in dining and, perhaps most importantly, we’re more connected than ever before.

Our industry, at its heart, is about community. In times of happiness and success, and in more trying times like today,

we are committed to being partners with you. We are a culinary family, and we will be with you every step of the way to

ensure we get through this, and we do so stronger than ever.

We will be diligent about finding creative solutions to support you in the coming weeks and months. Shortly, we will

be introducing a digital campaign to drive awareness about pick-up and delivery services available to consumers. As

consumer behaviors change, we want to change with them to help drive more business to your restaurant. If you are

implementing new ways to continue to serve your community, please let us know. We will help spread your message.

This isn’t the first storm we’ve weathered together, and, inevitably, it won’t be our last. We survived 9/11, the great reces-

sion, natural disasters, you name it. We’ve withstood it all, and this will be no different. Together, we will emerge from this

stronger than ever before.

We are here for you, Chef.
