TestimonialWhat Our Partners Say

"It is important for us to keep our loyal customer base. We do so by having offerings that our competitors can't offer. We sell a lot of natural, organic and specialty foods and we do not have our own private label. UNFI has offered a line of products that allows us to compete, which has become our private label."

Rick Silvia Dave's Marketplace

"We have partnered with UNFI since 2002, and it just continues to get better. Our natural selection has greatly improved and our business with UNFI has doubled. Because of our partnership we are able to offer the best products to our community. "

Derek Oliver Buyer, Fruit Center Marketplace

"Before the doors opened at Urban Greens, we had already partnered with UNFI. We knew that they offered all of the healthy food we wanted to carry. The choices of organic, Non-GMO and conventional products were a perfect fit for our business."

Allyn Jones Purchasing Manager, Urban Greens Co-op
