BiRite Grows 8.5% in 2003

BRISBANE, CA - BiRite Foodservice Distributors, an ID Top 50 broadliner, grew 9.5% in sales last year.

Sales in 2003 reached $166 million, up from $153 million in 2002, according to Tim Robertson, vice-president of sales.

"The growth has come from a rebound in our street sales in the San Francisco Bay area in addition to the continued growth of our morale-welfare-recreation military sales," Robertson said.

Robertson added that business opportunities also appear to be strong for this year.
