Gordon Food Service Expands Territory with Glazier Foods Company Acquisition

On March 31, 2014 Gordon Food Service announced the acquisition of Glazier Food Service, a Texas based foodservice distributor.  Glazier Foods Company was founded in 1936 by C.R. “Bob” Glazier as a frozen foods pioneer; today the company delivers a much larger variety of food products to many different foodservice operators.

“Glazier Foods is an outstanding company with a strong family heritage. Their dedication to high-quality service and customer success is an ideal fit with Gordon Food Service’s culture and commitment to customer service,” said Jim Gordon, CEO of Gordon Food Service.

“The Glazier family is convinced that we could not have found a better home than Gordon Food Service, a 117-year-old family business, for our company after more than 77 years of ownership by the Glazier family. We are convinced that Gordon Food Service shares our commitments to employees and customers and that Glazier Foods will continue to grow and prosper as part of the Gordon Food Service family,” said Jim Spring, Chairman of Glazier Foods Company.
