Sherwood Food Distributors
 PROFILE
The merry men and women at Sherwood Food Distributors have enough turkey legs to keep even Friar Tuck from getting hungry. The company is one of the largest privately owned wholesale distributors of meat and poultry in the US. Sherwood Food serves customers throughout the US through five distribution facilities that are supported by a Ryder Truck Rental fleet of refrigerated trucks. Sherwood Food was formed in 1987 by the merger of the food distribution operations of Orleans International and Regal Packaging, each of which owns half of the company.
