Food For Thought: Who is Served by Food Distribution in DFW?
As couriers in the DFW Metroplex, we serve a variety of industries. From healthcare to oil and gas, our couriers can and do deliver it all! Oftentimes, we can serve a multitude of businesses across different sectors with just one type of delivery. Take, for example, food distribution.
Which industries are served by food distribution in DFW? So many!
Here are a few of the most surprising sectors that are served by food logistics. No doubt you’ll find that you are likely served by more than one of these.
Healthcare
It might be strange to consider food distribution an essential tool for healthcare providers, but hospitals, nursing homes, long term care facilities, and surgical care centers, among others, all understand the importance of diet in the treatment plans for their patients. Food is vital to the health and healing of people. In simple terms: food is medicine!
Proper food distribution means getting the right items to healthcare facilities on time. Meeting the nutritional needs of patients can be a complex task, but one thing you shouldn’t have to worry about is how and when your food is arriving.
HIPAA and OSHA certified food couriers from our Dallas Courier team have been partnering with healthcare facilities for nearly four decades. We take our role in patient care seriously. We’re committed to secure and safe transport of temperature sensitive foods and beverages. We’re also committed to on time deliveries, whether from daily or weekly routes or on demand food distribution needs.
Let our food distributors handle the transportation, while you get back to the important job of caring for patients.
Education
The CDC states that nutrition education in schools is an important part of establishing healthy behaviors for students of all ages. Not only that, 13 million children in the United States live in a state of food insecurity. Sometimes, the only meals they eat are those that are provided at their educational institution.
Talk about a humbling commission! It’s our privilege at Dallas Courier to deliver nutritious and appealing foods to children within and outside of the Metroplex with deliveries to educational institutions. Our drivers are vetted and certified, which means they’re a trusted part of the transportation process. They’ll maintain Dallas Courier standards of honesty, integrity, and, of course, safety, while driving on campus and executing deliveries.

Restaurants
Of course, it would be impossible to talk about food distribution without mentioning restaurants. North Texas is known for some interesting and creative delicacies. From the famous Fletcher’s Corny Dogs to 72-ounce steaks, moving food around the Big D is an important (and rather complex) task. But experienced food distributors like Dallas Courier are up for the job!
In fact, a local food courier like ours can help keep more money in the pockets of North Texans. We love keeping it in the DFW family! When local restaurants hire local couriers to move food from local sources, (did we mention it stays local?) we keep the love right here in the Metroplex. The food supply chain moves faster, the food is fresher, and the patrons keep coming back for more!
In the age of COVID-19, it might seem risky to try something new with food operations. But Dallas Courier is committed to safe transportation of food 24/7. We adhere to all federal and local standards for food transportation, and keep in mind social standards as well, including practicing social distance, wearing PPE, and offering contactless options for delivery.
Let the experienced team of professionals at Dallas Courier be a delicious part of your restaurant’s food distribution and supply chain!
Grocery and Convenience Stores
Keeping grocery stores stoked, especially this time of year, and in the midst of a pandemic to boot, can be a tough task. With proper food logistics, though, customers can find their favorite items on grocery store or convenience store shelves any time they need it.
Thanks to refrigerated trucks, cold, ambient, and frozen foods stay fresh while on the go. From prepared foods to fresh produce, food couriers can transport items routinely to ensure delicious, fresh foods are available to customers at all times. Daily, weekly, or biweekly routes are some of the most popular food logistics services that Dallas Courier customers utilize. The best part is, it only takes a few minutes to set up.
