Vital Farms Launches with Dot Foods, Expanding Foodservice Offerings Nationwide in 2023
17 2월 2023 - 10:00PM
We've kicked off a new relationship with Dot Foods, the largest
food industry redistribution company in North America, to make our
eggs "eggs-essible" to their network of 5,200 distributors across
all 50 states. This marks two firsts —we're the first egg brand Dot
Foods has ever stocked and redistributed nationally, and this is
the first time ever our pasture-raised eggs are available for
national foodservice distribution.
Dot Foods enables suppliers like us to ship to distributors in
"less-than-truckload" quantities every week. They're a bridge
between the big distributors and suppliers. Dot Foods'
redistribution model will help us reach even more foodservice
operators, from high-volume brunch spots to smaller regional chains
and family-owned restaurants.
"People are craving more ethical food when dining out. Our new
relationship with Dot Foods will help more people enjoy
high-quality eggs at restaurants and other places away from home,"
said Ash Idais, Senior Director, Foodservice, Vital Farms. "In the
early days of Vital Farms, our founder hand-delivered eggs to
Austin restaurants from the back of his Subaru. Fast forward 15
years—it's exciting to now have vendors like Dot helping us bring
more ethical food to tables across the country."
Dot Foods will offer three of our ethically produced items
designed specifically for foodservice:
- Bulk case of 180 shell eggs: 180
pasture-raised shell eggs packed in a case with "Easy Cowboy"
printed on the side, so people handle this precious cargo with
care.
- 20-pound "bag in box" of liquid eggs: A
pre-cracked, ready-to-pour option that gives foodservice operators
a value-added egg that's hassle and mess-free.
- Hard boiled eggs in "grab-and-go" 2-count:
Pre-boiled, pre-peeled pasture-raised eggs, conveniently packaged
in 2-count grab-and-go pouches with salt and pepper for easy
snacking.
All our egg products distributed through Dot Foods meet a Vital
Farms pasture-raised standard. The hens who produce these eggs have
at least 108 square feet of regular outdoor access on the family
farms in our network. These animal welfare standards go above and
beyond cage-free requirements now mandated in states including
California and Massachusetts.
