Today, on what would’ve been his 100th birthday, we celebrate the life and legacy of our co-founder, Robert (RT) Tracy. “Dad is no longer physically with us,” said Dick Tracy, Dot Foods CEO and RT’s 12th child, “but he lives on in how we do our business.” Thank you RT for your humility, compassion, and innovation, which continue to drive success for Dot and our business partners. https://bit.ly/3WBxxTG

About us
Founded in 1960, Dot Foods is North America’s largest food industry redistributor and one of the largest private, family-owned businesses in the U.S. Started by Robert and Dorothy Tracy in the small Midwestern town of Mt. Sterling, Illinois, Dot now delivers to all 50 states and over 50 countries. Dot employs more than 4,000 individuals and hasn't had a single layoff in all our history. Our corporate headquarters is still located in Mt. Sterling, but we also have 13 distribution centers in the U.S.; a corporate sales office in St. Louis, Missouri; two locations in Canada; and a joint venture in Mexico. Although our locations are spread out across North America, each practices our brand promise every day: Trusted Values. Innovative Solutions. Shared Growth.® This message is as true today as it was when the Tracys built the business. Robert and Dorothy instilled a set of values that serve as the cornerstone of our business model. And these values promise to provide innovative solutions for our business partners to ensure their problems, both big and small, are solved. In the end, we don’t succeed unless our employees are happy and our partners grow their businesses alongside ours. If you work for us or join Dot Foods as a partner, you can be sure that we will take care of our relationship and ensure it flourishes.
