C & S Wholesale Grocers, Inc. Company Profile
C&S Wholesale Grocers is at the bottom of the food chain -- and likes it that way. The company is the second largest wholesale grocery distributor in the US (behind SUPERVALU), supplying goods to some 5,000 independent supermarkets, major supermarket chains (including Safeway), mass marketers, and wholesale clubs. It distributes more than 53,000 items, including groceries, produce, and non-food items from its more than 70 distribution centers in a dozen states. C&S Wholesale also operates dozens of grocery stores and liquor outlets through its Southern Family Markets division. Israel Cohen started the family-owned company with Abraham Siegel in 1918.
