Massive Revenue Increase Raises Serious Questions
US Foods is a huge national food service and restaurant supplier based in Rosemont, Illinois — a name known in nearly every professional kitchen across America. With 185 distribution centers spanning the nation, US Foods doesn’t just participate in the food supply chain — it anchors it. The company’s trucks and invoices reach deep into restaurants, schools, hospitals, and grocery delis alike.
In 2020, US Foods reported revenues of $22.8 billion — down from $25.94 billion in 2019 due to pandemic disruptions. Fair enough. But what followed is what should raise every consumer’s eyebrow.
By 2025, just five years later, the company’s annual revenues skyrocketed to $37.877 billion.
That’s not a rebound — that’s a whopping 66% increase.
Let that sink in. While small restaurants shuttered, supply chains “tightened,” and consumers were told price hikes were due to “inflation” and “diesel costs,” US Foods quietly stacked over $15 billion in new annual revenue.
Their primary phone number is (847) 720-8000.
Their CEO is David Flitman.
And the question now belongs to you.
Just as with Sysco — whose CEO Kevin Hourican was featured in yesterday’s report — we’re giving you a chance to take this straight to the top. Call US Foods. Ask to speak to the executive offices. Tell them you’d like to know why food prices have kept climbing even though diesel prices have dropped since 2022.
Be firm. Be factual.
This data isn’t rumor — it comes directly from their own annual reports.
If these companies are profiting at record levels while blaming external “supply pressures,” then Americans deserve an answer.
Until regulators start listening, the only thing that will get their attention is you.
Pick up the phone. Ask questions. Demand transparency.
Because until accountability becomes part of the food chain, price gouging will remain the main course.
