Not Just a Food Supplier: How a GPO Can Boost Your Restaurant's Success

GPO supplier

June 18, 2024

Are you thinking about buying fresh products, linens, or uniforms from a restaurant food supplier?

You will probably need to get your foodservice supplies from different suppliers, both big and small. Working with a mix of suppliers has many benefits, especially when you use a Group Purchasing Organization (GPO).

Here are some things to consider when choosing a supplier:

Wide Range of Products with Entegra’s Local and Direct (L&D) Program

Local doesn't just mean food. Our L&D Program offers beverages, table linens, and uniforms too. This program gives you more options than national distributors. Entegra's program is designed to meet your needs.

Fresh, In-Season Produce, Meats, and Dairy

A big benefit of local suppliers is fresh, locally-grown produce and regional specialties. Local suppliers often work directly with local farms. They can provide in-season fruits and vegetables, which support the local economy and improve the taste and quality of your dishes.

A Local Feel for Your Restaurant

Local suppliers can also offer meats, dairy products, and baked goods from your area. This helps you create a unique menu that stands out. Fresh flowers from local suppliers can add to the atmosphere of your restaurant.

Flexibility and Personalized Service

Local suppliers can offer more personalized service. They might be more willing to meet your specific needs and be flexible with delivery schedules and order quantities.

We ensure competitive prices and high-quality products. Our team helps with supplier selection, negotiations, and support.

Choosing between local and national suppliers depends on what your restaurant needs. Sometimes, using both is the best choice. By working with a Group Purchasing Organization (GPO), you get the buying power of a larger group while still being able to use local suppliers when it makes sense.

What does your restaurant need to succeed? Work with experts at Entegra to save on almost everything your business needs. Contact us to see how the world’s largest food GPO can help improve your operations.
