History

Sysco was founded in the year 1969. The company has been active for almost 50 years now. The company was founded by Herbert Irving and John F Baugh. The company was started as a food service company that will be providing ready-made meals. The company had become a limited public entity in the next year on the New York Stock Exchange as well and had sales of almost $115 million. During the 1970s, the company was growing steadily due to its continued diversification into new products, such as fish, meat, and fresh production as well.

In the year 1976 Sysco had taken over Mid-Central Fish and also Frozen Foods as well, which had expanded the company's distribution capabilities to the national level quickly. Also, during the 1980s, the company had acquired several of its competitors, therefore making it the largest food distribution company in the world, by the end of the decade as well. In the year 1988, the company had acquired CFS Continental - which was taken over from Tate & Lyle, through their purchase of AE Staley in Illinois, USA. In the year 1991, the company had spun off its chain restaurant distribution system into a new company known as Sygma. By the year 1996, the company was the third largest company in Houston, USA. It had over 30,000 employees as well. Then in the year 2002, the company had purchased Serca Foodservices and later renamed it to Sysco Canada as well. Serca had always been owned by the supermarket giant, known as Oshawa Group, who were then acquired by Sobeys in the year 1998. As of the year 2003, the company had purchased Asian Foods - which was the most extensive Asian foods distribution in North America. The first group of Asian Foods had joined Sysco Kansas City in the year 2006, which was followed by Asian Foods Chicago joining Sysco Chicago in the year 2009. Then in the year 2009, the company had acquired Pallas Foods - which was the largest food distributor in Ireland.
