Our warehouses are the heartbeat of our company. They ensure products are received from suppliers, stored correctly, and distributed to our customers accurately and on time. Each warehouse is designed to store dry, refrigerated, and frozen food and food-related products. Receivers, selectors, lift truck operators, food safety experts, and others leverage technology and work together to ensure products are received, selected, and loaded onto trailers for delivery to our customers.

Our sales associates often interact with customers daily, helping to facilitate orders, monitor deliveries, and answer questions.
There are numerous roles throughout each of our locations that appeal to just about any career path. We offer careers in Procurement, Finance, Human Resources, Marketing, Logistics and Food Safety to name a few. Within all of these roles, you will find a common thread – a dedication to customer service and a passion for food.
From the quality food we deliver, to the associates who make up our company, we believe in starting with the finest ingredients. Our values are the catalyst for our company’s path to achievement. By remembering these values every day, we ensure we thrive.

We are the enablers. The ones stacking opportunity on pallets and delivering it from trucks. The ones who think impossible is a good reason to try something.
The ones who do the work and leave the complaining to someone else. The people who find our purpose in early mornings and elbow grease.
We don’t do this for the glory, no one says give my compliments to the food delivery driver. But without our daily consistent work, no one would be giving compliments at all.
Everything we do is to serve the people on the frontlines of foodservice.
The ones whose hands and fingers are speckled with little burns from the fryer, the ones who know their own customers as well as we know ours and love them just as much.
We work for their success. We aren’t in the delivery business, we’re in the success business.
We want each customer we serve to be a crazy line out the door success. We want to hear that the entrance way flooring is wearing down. We want to have solutions before they even know there was a problem.
We want what they want, because we both know why it’s called foodservice. Our business isn’t really about us, it’s about making things work for our customers.
That’s what we do. That’s all we do. We don’t feed people, we feed dreams. We are Performance Foodservice.
Kevin Holbrook, a Quality Control Manager at Performance Foodservice – Springfield, started with us part-time over 18 years ago. He progressed through many roles such as Order Selector, Nightshift Supervisor, Dayshift Supervisor and Warehouse Manager before being promoted to his current role.
At each and every position or new challenge…someone in management encouraged me to take the opportunity and felt I had the talent or skills to excel at that new role.
We believe that a diverse company leads to a strong, engaged workforce. In fact, we have grown to become one of the nation’s premier foodservice distributors because of our associates. We strive to attract, develop, and retain talent of all backgrounds. That’s a business practice we are confident will sustain our success.
Performance Foodservice values the experience, skills, work ethic, and training that associates from the armed services bring to the table. We are committed to hiring veterans in all areas of our company.
We are committed to serving the communities in which we live. Across Performance Foodservice, our dedicated associates volunteer at food banks, organize food drives, and step up to feed those in need during times of crisis. Each one of our distribution locations is at the heart of their community and finds unique ways to support and lift up those in need.
As a nationwide employer, we offer total compensation packages that help associates lead healthy lives at work and at home. We offer medical, dental, vision, and prescription drug coverage along with many other health and wellness plans designed to help you live your healthiest life. And for your financial well-being, associates can elect to participate in a variety of programs such as employee stock purchase, 401k plan, flexible spending accounts, and life insurance. From paid time off and short-term/long-term disability to adoption assistance, we understand that life happens, and we’re committed to providing the support you need, whenever you need it.
