GrubMarket has acquired Jana Food, a halal and ethnic food wholesaler in the Dallas-Forth Worth area in Texas. Jana Food's 100,000-square-foot facility provides over 4,000 products with a specialty focus on frozen foods, dry, fresh meats, and halal meat.
"We are excited to join the GrubMarket family and welcome the exciting growth opportunities that GrubMarket's technology and network offer. We are committed to providing the highest quality service to our loyal customer base and thrilled to learn that GrubMarket shares this same mission of supporting farms and serving customers with the highest standard. We sincerely look forward to joining the GrubMarket Team. Together, we look to grow Jana Food to the next level of success," said Ala Ahmad, general manager of Jana Food, in a statement. Jana Food will continue to be managed by its current leadership team and Ahmad will still serve as its general manager.
Jana Food will now be able to utilize GrubMarket's proprietary WholesaleWare software suite, the company's software platform providing food industry suppliers and vendors with financial management, online ordering and sales, inventory management, and CRM tools.
"Ranchers and farmers in the Jana Food network take pride in catering to a highly specialized market audience and hold their products to the highest standards,” said GrubMarket in a statement. “Their commitment to sustainable food sourcing and outstanding service is a testament to its longstanding success in the North Texas Region. We are pleased to welcome the Jana Food team to the GrubMarket family as we further strengthen our position in Texas. Together, we will build a larger customer base and a stronger network in the food ecosystem nationwide."
