Founded in 1979, Mid Valley Foods is a family-owned wholesale meat and food distributor located in California’s Central Valley. Over the years, the business has grown, expanding from its roots as a small-sized meat distributor to a powerhouse in the wholesale food distribution industry.
In 2011, Mid Valley Foods expanded into a newly constructed 25,000-square-foot-facility, tripling the operation’s capacity and providing space for future expansion.
With plans underway, co-owners Les and Cheri Casey knew they had to replace their current fleet of aging forklifts to stay competitive. Mid Valley Foods relies on its lift trucks to move product into and out of the warehouse across two shifts each day.
Working alongside their local dealer, they found the solution they were looking for: the EJE 120 walkie pallet truck from Jungheinrich.
