Diversity

GFS Encourages Diversity

Dedicated to diversity for our customers and for our employees

At Gordon Food Service, we offer a workplace that is as exciting, rewarding, and diverse as the customers we serve.

Our Vision of Diversity
Our vision is to grow and sustain Gordon Food Service business by creating an organization that can meet the needs of the increasingly diverse customer, suppliers, and communities we serve.

Strategically, we focus our attention toward initiatives that will attract diverse talent to our organization, provide training and professional development for the enhancement of employees, and actively cultivate a diverse network of suppliers. Holding ourselves accountable, we consistently report on the success of these initiatives to our leadership and board members.

Commitment
Currently, we purchase products for our customers from more than 100 Women and Minority Business Enterprises (WMBE’s) and we continue to grow our purchase potential from these organizations each year.

Cornerstone Values
Our key Cornerstone Values guide our decisions and commitments to those we partner with, especially the core value, “Everyone is Important.”

Gordon Food Service is an Equal Opportunity Employer and does not discriminate against any person on the basis of age, sex, race, religion, national origin, disability, or veteran status.

Gordon Food Service, while privately owned, has chosen to employ Affirmative Action plans, diversity awareness training, and EEOC reporting to demonstrate our passion for increasing the diversity culture within our organization.
