Edward Don & Company, one of the leading distributors of foodservice equipment and supplies in the U.S., has joined Network Services Company, a $13 billion U.S.-based international organization of independent member-distributors of janitorial supplies, food service disposables, industrial packaging products and printing materials.

Owned and operated by the Don family since 1921, Edward Don & Company (www.don.com) sells to all types of foodservice businesses, including independent restaurants, national chains, health care facilities, hotels, country clubs, schools and universities, government institutions and foodservice management.

Edward Don & Company’s product selection includes over 12,000 stock items in tabletop, smallwares, paper products, cleaning supplies, equipment and furnishings. The company also sources products from a network of 3,000 suppliers worldwide.

The membership of Network Services Company (www.nsconline.com) includes over 80 entrepreneurial distributors with over 650 locations in 31 countries servicing 1.3 million customer locations.

"Edward Don & Company reinforces our extensive coverage of the nation and our ability to distribute foodservice supplies and equipment to national restaurant chains and all other foodservice markets," says R. James Alexy, CEO of Network. "Even in economic slowdowns, today’s lifestyles create a demand for away-from-home meals."

"We believe that the association with Network and its members will provide expanded market and product opportunities and the ability for both organizations to grow their market awareness and business," says Steve Don, President of Edward Don & Company.
