 PROFILE
Dot Foods, the largest food service redistributor in the US, was born in a station wagon that hauled dairy goods around as Associated Dairy Products. The company now runs more than 400 trucks (under the name Dot Transportation), which roll cross-country to receive groceries, flatware, serving ware, utensils, and janitorial supplies from food and equipment manufacturers and redistribute them to food processors and food service distributors. The company owns facilities in California, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, and Missouri, and it serves customers in all 50 states. Dot has formed a subsidiary, edotfoods, to handle its e-commerce ventures. Robert and Dorothy Tracy founded the family-owned company in 1960.
