As a part of Burris Logistics, Honor Foods is a leading provider of frozen, refrigerated, dry, dairy, and protein products. Currently, the company represents over 800 brand-name food suppliers and offers more than 7000 in-stock items. Furthermore, its exclusive private labels, including Sommer Maid, Sunny Morning Foods, Colony Lane, and Valley Fresh, are renowned for their exceptional quality and value at competitive prices. Continuously growing, Honor Foods has completed two transformative acquisitions in the past few years: R. W. Zant and Sunny Morning, expanding its redistribution services and product opportunities across the West Coast and Southeast. JD Spangler, President, sheds light on the company’ s structure and services.

“ In a nutshell, we are a family-owned business dedicated to food distribution, largely servicing food service distributors. We have a long history in the industry with Burris Logistics, our parent company, being 100 years old. Honor Foods represents a consolidation of multiple businesses: the oldest, Sunny Morning, has been operating for 115 years; R. W. Zant has a rich history spanning 75 years; and Honor Foods itself has been in existence for 76 years. As a result, we have a deep heritage in the food business.
