Five Star Food Service is arguably the largest independent operator of MicroMarkets in the world with over 1,000 locations operating in Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Mississippi and Alabama. An early adopter of technology and matched with a close-knit management team, Five Star plans to expand both geographically to take advantage of underserved areas with MicroMarkets, as well as using newer technology like mobile and tablet to take their offerings to smaller offices and businesses.

This contract allows both 365 and Five Star to focus on growth as they cement their reputations as dominant forces in the convenience services industry and widen the gap between their respective competition.

I am extremely proud of them and their accomplishments.”
