Burris Logistics’ Honor Foods subsidiary has expanded its dairy portfolio again with the acquisition of Sunny Morning Foods, a foodservice redistribution with dairy expertise located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Honor Foods, a Philadelphia-based redistributor of frozen, refrigerated, and dry food service products, is one of four Burris four business units, alongside Burris Custom Distribution, Burris PRW Plus (public refrigerated warehousing), and Burris Freight Management.
Last year, Burris bought likewise Los-Angeles-based R.W. Zant Company in a move to expand Honor’s product portfolio and geographical footprint.
