"Focused on our Future"
As a company, Ben E. Keith has a rich history that has provided the foundation for what it has become today – a leader in the foodservice distribution industry. While we embrace our past, part of the success of Ben E. Keith is attributed to forward thinking – we have always been “focused on our future”.
This incredible piece of art was commissioned in 1999 and dedicated at the opening of our flagship operation and distribution facility in Fort Worth. World renowned artist, Jack Bryant, sculpted this lifelike replica, and his son, Jack Bryant, Jr. formed the mold from the original sculpture. The piece was then cast in bronze in the Bryant foundry in Azle, Texas.
The bronze exhibits a mother longhorn focusing on the future with her calf, much like Ben E. Keith continues to be focused on our future as a company, the future of our employees, and the future of our customers partners.
The theme of family and its future success continues to resonate at Ben E. Keith Foods, as Jack Bryant’s grandson Jacob Bryant, is now a Waco based District Sales Representative for our DFW Branch.
