Asheville, N.C. – Sept. 24, 2019 – Sysco in Cincinnati was recognized as the No. 5 Sales Volume Medium Broadline Foodservice Distributor by the Certified Angus Beef ® brand.

In its 20th year of offering the branded beef, Sysco Cincinnati focused on its quality in outreach to top steakhouses and restaurants in the market.
