If all you know about Sysco is those ubiquitous food trucks outside your favorite restaurant, then you really don’t know much about the world’s largest broadline food distributor.

Being the leader in the foodservice industry means Sysco understands the important role food plays in bringing people together and creating connections. That understanding inspired Sysco’s company purpose: Connecting the world to share food and care for one another.

Last November, the Chamber held the popular Holiday Food & Supply Drive benefitting Tony’s Place, a resource center and community safe space for LGBTQ+ Houston youth. Sysco joined in a big way as a Giving Back Sponsor.
