Philosophy
At Van Eerden Foodservice Company, the cornerstone of our business is service. Accordingly, we take a "Service First" approach to our business. This approach entails total organizational focus on the three primary groups that make up the foodservice Foodservice chain: Customers, Vendors and Employees.
Customers are at the heart of our "Service First" philosophy. Providing our customers the right products, when they need them, and at fair prices is a principle of our philosophy. With this in mind, we have implemented business processes, technology and measurement systems to ensure that our customers' foodservice needs are met accurately, consistently and timely. To this end, we place special emphasis on:
- Relationships
- Flexibility
- Product Innovation
- Technology
Van Eerden Foodservice Company partners with numerous vendors and brokers to provide an array of foodservice products. Our "Service First" approach with vendors and brokers centers on the marketing, availability and pricing of quality products. Values of integrity and trust are particularly important to our organization, and are at the forefront of our relationship with our supplier partners.
Looking at a situation from the customer's point of view is another principle of our "Service First" philosophy. Van Eerden Foodservice Company employees are committed to delivering service value throughout all points of the foodservice chain. Business processes, technology, training and measurement systems are critical components within our business model that have been designed to help our employees deliver superior service.
