The Values We Share

Recognizing the part played by others in our success, the following expresses the values we share with our co-workers, our customers, our suppliers, our operating companies, our industry and the communities in which we live and conduct our business.

To Our Co-Workers

Our co-workers are our most important asset. We will treat our co-workers with respect and provide just compensation and benefits. Individual contribution will be recognized. Advancement will be based on performance and abilities.

We will provide a safe and healthy work environment.

We will earn and keep our customers' loyalty by making their needs our number one priority.

We will look to our suppliers for products and support that represent a value to our customers and our company.

We will develop alliances with our suppliers to enhance this value and strengthen our mutual relationship with the customer.

We will be honest and fair with each of our suppliers and expect the same of them.

To Our Operating Companies

To Our Community

Performance Food Group companies will support and enhance the communities in which we do business through company and personal involvement in community affairs. The company will operate in an ethical manner, carefully observing all laws and relations in its communities.

The Role of Profits

Performance Food Group is focused on maximizing the profitable growth in all of its business segments. That is the only way we can pay our associates a fair wage, provide an attractive return to shareholders and invest in future growth. It is the only way the company can sustain itself to carry out our business mission and citizenship responsibilities.

While profits are something that must be earned today, profits earned today at the expense of the future have little value.

Performance Food Group will balance its need for profit and long-term growth. The company will not mortgage its future for the sake of short-term gain.
