Sysco Lincoln, Inc.

THE QUICK READ

Sysco Lincoln runs a food distribution center near Lincoln Airport that nearly doubled in size after Sysco acquired the 210,000-square-foot Lincoln Poultry and Egg building in 2010 and invested $19.4 million to expand it. The operation traces to Lincoln Poultry and Egg Company, a broadline foodservice distributor founded in 1957 that served more than 800 customers across the central United States. The facility includes one of the largest dry-aging rooms in the Midwest, where butchers custom-cut steaks, and a culinary center with two kitchens and an inventory of more than 13,000 items. Its ammonia refrigeration system holds roughly 24,000 pounds, above the 10,000-pound federal threshold that triggers a process safety management program. Lincoln is Nebraska's state capital and second-largest city, with a population near 303,000.
