Our Values
Expand allOne of the most overlooked ways to increase profitability is through optimizing your food buying and inventory. While cuts in staffing are a powerful (and oftentimes obvious) way to increase profits, managing human resources can take much more effort. That’s why SB Value focuses on the profitability of food, from maximizing food orders to reducing waste to making cost calculations and pricing easy.
Everything we do and stand for is about effortlessness. According to Merriam-Webster, effortlessness is defined as “showing or requiring little or no effort.” Because we believe that small and mid-sized caterers and businesses work hard enough, everything we do aims to reduce work, not just “make it easier.” That’s why we want to help you be profitable through doing what you normally do. Just order your food the same way you always do and save. Easy.
In the end, we are committed to being your advocates. We not only care about hard-working culinary professionals, we want to bestow you with great economic powers through our leverage. So that you can make more money, increase your profits and grow your business, without having to work harder or jump through a bunch of hoops to do it.
US Foods works with suppliers to source products that are local, sustainable, or support well-being. They also have a Serve Good program that offers products that are responsibly sourced, reduce waste, or are eco-friendly. For example, they offer products that are organic, non-GMO, Fair Trade Certified, or Rainforest Alliance Certified.

It’s a simple idea but a huge one. If you spent $10 billion on your foodservice spend you would get way better prices than you do now because you’d be one of the largest accounts in the country. With 28,000 members working tougher we have billions in leverage. We use this leverage to do what you would do…we take this leverage to the manufacturers and get the price you would get with this much leverage and pass the savings on to you. It’s that simple.
