It is the goal of RDP Foodservice to be a leader in the foodservice industry. Long known as strictly an Italian distributor, RDP has emerged as a broader based casual dining and fast casual provider. Never to abandon its Italian roots, RDP still continues to lead and pride itself with serving the finest Italian restaurants and pizza establishments. With this base, RDP Foodservice has become a favorite to Pubs, Taverns, Sports Bars and the like.
With over 3,000 line items available and a relationship with Progressive Group Alliance, RDP Foodservice markets a vast array of food and non-food products. Along with representing the most popular brand names in the industry, RDP's quest to provide a positive experience to the restaurateur has driven our employees to introduce such conveniences as online order placement and a complete portfolio of marketing enhancements. It is our goal to answer all the questions you may have to be successful in the fast paced foodservice environment. Driven to the point of referring to our company sales representatives as sales consultants.
RDP Foodservice was founded in 1996 and formed after a ten year relationship under the umbrella of the countries largest broad line distributor. RDP continues to be owned by the DiPaolo family. His three grandsons, who take pride in the family history and yet are well versed with the needs of the current and future foodservice landscape, manage the company.
As today's RDP Foodservice company has grown and changed, we have continued to meet the challenges and demands of an ever-changing industry without sacrificing our commitment to product quality and customer service. In the years to come, RDP will continue to rely on the strength of our regional brands, the growth of our nationally branded products and our ability to supply foodservice items to consistently lead the industry in every channel of food distribution.
