Gpac has partnered with a Produce Distributor in the Southeast that is doing things differently—and doing them well. With under 20 team members, they’ve built a $36M business focused on personalized service, smart logistics, and strong customer relationships.

They own their own consolidation center, which means they can build flexible, customized ordering programs for customers—a huge edge over the cookie-cutter corporate suppliers.
