US Foods announced Feb. 15 that it has agreed to acquire All American Foods, a broadline distributor based in North Kingstown, R.I., with annual sales of nearly $60 million.

All American Foods was established in 1988 and has grown to offer more than 4,000 SKUs to nearly 1,000 customers throughout Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Connecticut.

The addition of All American Foods will further enhance US Foods' ability to serve customers in the Northeast region, an area of the country heavily populated with independent restaurants, US Foods said.

US Foods will continue to operate out of the 65,000 sq. ft. facility from which All American Foods operates today.

“The growth All American Foods has experienced over the last three decades is proof that their business model and commitment to customer service is strong,” said John O’Carroll, Northeast region president for US Foods. “We are looking forward to building on All American Foods’ already strong reputation and bringing an even better experience to foodservice operators throughout southern New England.”

The transaction is expected to close at the end of February. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
