COVID-19 Message

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to develop, Team Four/Value Four is continuously monitoring this unprecedented situation and making adjustments in the tools and methods we use to serve our customers.  We are 100% committed to serving you with the service and attention to detail that you expect from our company. While we have temporarily suspended all travel and are now telecommuting, please be assured that we are squarely focused on helping you keep your business working.  We are in constant communication with our business partners; vendors, suppliers and other providers; to ensure you get the products and services that you need to continue operating in these unchartered waters.   
While we have adjusted to telecommuting, we have put the proper IT and telecommunications systems in place at everyone’s homes so we can seamlessly serve your business as always.  We are available via email, telephone, text, conference calls, and video calls.  We are 100% committed to being there to assist you in your time of need.   
The suspension of travel and the introduction of telecommuting were implemented to protect our employees and their families and to do our part in the social distancing program to help prevent the spread of the virus.  
We believe that our employees are our most valuable asset and the most important part of our service to you; therefore, we have given our employees additional paid sick leave and family leave in the event they need that benefit. In addition, we have NO plans to reduce staff or reduce hours and we have communicated these facts to our staff so they can serve you and care for their families without concern for their careers or their ability to pay their bills.   
The health and safety of you, your families, your employees and their families are in our thoughts and in our prayers. We are a resilient country and people; we will get to the other side of this crisis together and we will rise and eventually be stronger than we were before we went in. In fact, we have formed a working group to develop customer-centric strategies and services to create positive momentum as we return to a more normal world.  
 Thank you for your friendship, our partnership and the business you do with our companies.

  Negotiated Manufacturer Agreements

---

​We are experts in distribution and manufacturing.  We can expose the inflated costs, hidden fees, unrealistic freight rates, and poor buying habits that are used to artificially increase your cost of goods.

We have negotiated all the details with our distribution members.  Our distribution members will offer aggressive markup schedules on true cost assuring you of the best cost of goods.  We will audit our distribution members on a regular basis to assure that correct cost and markups are being used for accurate pricing.

Food operator’s expenditures are highest on center of the plate.  Most distributors will try to mark this category up on a percentage markup.  We have negotiated aggressive cents per pound markups on your entire center of the plate items; fresh and frozen; to assure you of the lowest cost of goods on your highest volume product category.

​We negotiate aggressive manufacture agreements on the product categories that are most important to you.  We are able to lower your costs on your highest volume items for substantial savings.  The savings are more than you could get independently or through your distributor.

Our manufacturer agreements are negotiated to give you the best possible cost of goods on “all” your items regardless of whether they are volume items for you or not.  This saves you on the items that you many not pay attention to on a regular basis.

Product Sourcing

---

​We can offer you the most value when you give us the specifications of the items you use and allow us to find the manufacturer that can meet those specifications.  We are able to assure the quality of the product and deliver to you the best cost of goods.

We search for the unique, specialty manufacturer members who are capable and willing to customize products for you.  This allows you to differentiate your operation from your competition.  We operate as your R&D department allowing you to spend more time running your operation.

Value added services
