EG FORREST COMPANY

Ernest Graham Forrest Sr. founded EG Forrest Food Company in 1920. He knew the importance of providing excellent service and quality products when he started his wholesale business. Forrest was dedicated to hard work and aimed for success even during the lean years of the Great Depression. EG Forrest Company strengthened its business with local retail grocery trade by maintaining a high level of customer service. EG Forrest became the first and only broad line distributor in the area to use three compartment trucks. EG Forrest has emerged from a local company into a regional broad line distributor covering the Carolinas and Southern Virginia. Today, we have over 100 employees that are providing customers with high-quality products and competitive pricing. Our goal is to be the best, rather than the biggest.
