Sofo Foods Information

Sofo Foods is the largest ethnic food distributor in the Midwest. We are family owned and operated, and have been for over 50 years. Our roots are in Italian food, but we supply a variety of quality food products to all types of restaurants. Our commitment to quality and service are unparalleled in our industry. Sofo Foods started in the early 1940's when Antonio Sofo began to service the growing Italian community of Toledo. Since Italian foods were not available in the Toledo area he would travel to Detroit to purchase cheese, salamis, pasta and bread. He would deliver these products to his customers from the back of a single truck. Antonio's son Joe joined his father's business after returning from the Service. Joe soon realized the company's potential for growth. His vision and dedication helped make the company what it is today. Today we're in our third generation of family ownership and management. Mike and Joe Jr. carry on the traditions of the past 60 years. Sofo Foods has grown to be the largest ethnic food distributor in the Midwest. We have three distribution centers, our corporate office in Toledo, Ohio, Suwanee, Georgia, and Houston, Texas. We now have a fleet of trucks that deliver to restaurants and pizzerias in 17 states and we have over 350 dedicated employees. A lot has changed over the years, but commitment to quality products and the highest levels of customer service have never wavered. We strive to be the very best!
