About Us

Founded in 2005, our company began with a vision: to participate in the flourishing Latin food market in Florida. Starting with just one truck and a modest 1,000 sq. ft. space, we have grown into a leading distributor of refrigerated and frozen Latin foods. Over the years, we have expanded our reach, building strong relationships with Latin American food producers and offering a diverse portfolio of high-quality products, including our own label, Deli Riko.

Today, Central Foods Distributor (CFD) operates across Florida, serving over 680 points of sale with a modern fleet of 16 refrigerated trucks to ensure freshness and quality. Our extensive product range includes Latin creams, cheeses, yogurts, corn products, sausages, frozen vegetables, spices, grains, cookies, bread, and beverages—distributed efficiently to both major chain stores and small independent retailers.

With a 32,000 sq. ft. warehouse dedicated to frozen and refrigerated goods, we are well equipped to meet the growing demand for Latin flavors. Looking ahead, we are committed to reaching our Latin customers throughout Florida and beyond, strengthening our partnerships, and continuing to be a trusted leader in Latin food distribution.
