The Story Behind the Brand

Performance Foodservice traces its roots back to a local food peddler, who sold wares out of Richmond, Va. in 1885. Since that time, we’ve evolved into one of the largest distributors for restaurants in the U.S., but our commitment to sourcing handcrafted-style ingredients is as strong as ever. FLAVORSMITH® is part of that tradition, with our flavor expertise helping to bring out the best in your tabletops.

Start with elegant glass grinders, featuring premium sea salt produced from the Mediterranean itself, as well as bold, fragrant, sun-dried black peppercorns. And diners can’t wait to get their hands on bottles of fancy ketchup, made from mature, vine-ripened tomatoes or tangy deli-approved mustard. Add a kick of sweet & spicy with FLAVORSMITH Sweet Heat Hot Honey, that rivals other popular drizzles on the market, or reduce waste and costs with portion-control (PC) honey, brown sugar, ketchup, and mustard packets. Let Performance tabletop flavors do the hard work for you.
