Countrywide is built on the strength of its family-owned and operated food service distributors, delivering trusted, local service to hospitality businesses across Australia.
We’re proud to introduce our Distributor Stories, a growing feature on the Countrywide website that celebrates the people, families and businesses behind our national distribution network.
The series launches with an initial collection of stories, with the intention to progressively share a story for every Countrywide Distributor. Each profile highlights how independent, family-owned distributors continue to grow, innovate and support their local communities, while staying true to the values that define Countrywide.
From regional beginnings and multi-generation legacies to long-standing customer and supplier partnerships, Distributor Stories showcases the dedication and care our Members bring to their businesses every day.
Countrywide CEO Jeff Dhu says the series is about recognising the people who truly power the network.
“Countrywide has always been built on independent, family-owned distributors, and every one of them has a story worth telling. Our Distributor Stories is about recognising those journeys and celebrating the people behind the businesses. This series will continue to grow over time as we share the stories of distributors right across our network.”
– Jeff Dhu, CEO, Countrywide –
Together, these profiles reinforce what makes Countrywide unique – local expertise backed by national scale. While our network spans more than 130 distribution locations nationwide, our success is driven by the relationships, service and family values at the core of each distributor business.
We invite you to explore Distributor Stories and follow the series as new distributor profiles are added celebrating the people who make up our national family.
