Sysco Completes Acquisition of Bunn's Foodservice Division



The foodservice division of Bunn Capitol is considered one of the premier food service distribution firms in the central Illinois region. The company distributes more than 8,000 fresh, frozen and packaged goods to restaurants, healthcare businesses, clubs and other customer concepts throughout Illinois. It was an ID Top 50 distributorship for many years.

Richard J. Schnieders, chairman, ceo and president, said, "The acquisition of Bunn Capitol's foodservice assets will strengthen our presence in both the central Illinois and the St. Louis foodservice markets. Their long standing reputation for quality, superior customer service and market knowledge are consistent with our own and we welcome them to the Sysco family."
