Food Purchasing
Our flagship program. Food is the biggest number on your P&L, and the only one nobody negotiates for you. We change that as a co-op, not a middleman, for over 100 restaurants and convenience stores, ours included.

Sleep at nightYour pricing is watched every day
Monthly auditsPurchases checked against the contracted price
Be honest with yourself for a second.
Every item. Every line.
Top to bottom, we go line by line through everything on your order guide, the details and the big items alike, and price it landed at your back door. Nothing gets skipped.
What runs all the time
Not a report you get once a quarter. A desk that works your order guide every week of the year.
01 Contract pricing
We hold national-level contracts on the categories that move your P&L: proteins, produce, dairy, dry goods. Your volume rides on ours.
02 Direct to the manufacturer
When cutting out a middle layer wins, we go straight to the packer. Burgers, chicken, bacon: better product, straight from the source, still landed at your back door.
03 The same national contract we buy on
You go on our national account number, with the same negotiated terms our own restaurants buy on, all the way to your back door.
04 The monthly audit
Every month we audit the distribution center to confirm you were charged only the agreed percentage over manufacturer cost. Contracts fall off systems, prices get keyed wrong. We catch it and chase the credit.
05 Cross-member finds
A better bacon found for one member gets offered to every member. The co-op compounds: the more restaurants inside, the sharper everyone’s guide gets.

“It’s like somebody’s doing the homework when you’re not. If you decide to go boating, MVP is working.”
We talk to you, not just your spreadsheet.
When Rock & Brews joined, nobody emailed them a price list. We sat down with their team in Orlando with a folder of their own invoices, talked through how they actually use product, and found a pre-portioned chicken breast that cut their prep labor and their trim waste in the same move. The spreadsheet never sees that. A conversation does.
Bring us one order guide.
We’ll go through it top to bottom, line by line, and show you the difference, landed. We’re confident our program will save you money, and keep saving you money.
