US Foods Expands Buda, Texas, Distribution Operations

12/03/2024
Foodservice distributor US Foods plans to expand its operations in Buda, Texas. The more than $120 million project is expected to create 165 jobs.

The investment will include an additional 170,000 square feet at the company’s existing food distribution and warehousing facility. Construction on the expansion is scheduled for completion in the second half of 2026.

“Central Texas is a critical part of our distribution footprint, and we’ve been proud to do business here since we opened our Buda warehouse in 2011,” said US Foods Area President Taylor McIntyre. “We’d like to express our appreciation to the Office of the Texas Governor for its support and look forward to continuing to grow and enhance our partnership with the many foodservice operators we serve across the region.”

To support the project a Texas Enterprise Fund (TEF) grant of $1,072,500 has been extended.

“This significant investment in Buda brings 165 new, good-paying jobs for hardworking Texans in Central Texas and showcases the strength of our state’s economy,” noted Governor Greg Abbott. “Companies invest and expand in our great state because of our unmatched business-friendly climate, reasonable regulations, and highly skilled workforce. I look forward to seeing continued success for US Foods as we work together to build a bigger, better Texas for all.”

US Foods partners with approximately 300,000 restaurants and foodservice operators. The company offers a suite of e-commerce, technology and business solutions.

“We are honored to have our first Texas Enterprise Fund investment in Buda, which helped us land the US Food expansion,” added Buda Economic Development Corporation CEO Jennifer Storm.
