GrubMarket acquires Brothers Produce

The impressive scale and efficiency of Brothers Produce’s distribution operation enable it to ship over ten million cases of food every year

GrubMarket, the first-mover in tech-enabled B2B food eCommerce and a pioneer in Enterprise AI solutions for America’s food supply chain industry, announced it has completed the acquisition of Houston, TX-based Brothers Produce, one of the largest and most well-known foodservice distributors in Texas and the broader Southwestern U.S. Brothers Produce currently operates 3 distribution centres across Texas that allow it to serve a full line of fresh fruits and vegetables, speciality goods, and processed items to over 6,000 foodservice, education, restaurant, grocery and retail customers across Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Mississippi. The impressive scale and efficiency of Brothers Produce’s distribution operation enable it to ship over ten million cases of food every year.

Founded as a small family business in the 1980s by fresh produce veteran Martin Erenwert, Brothers Produce is now a full-service food distribution and wholesale business with warehouse facilities in Houston, Dallas/Fort Worth, and San Antonio, totalling over 250,000 square feet in space and featuring monitored, temperature-controlled cold storage, freezer storage, and dry storage. Brothers Produce also benefits from its robust logistics capabilities, which include an extensive fleet of over 200 vehicles spanning state-of-the-art refrigerated trucks, vans, and trailers designed to preserve product freshness during transit. Each vehicle carries a unique wrap design and serves as a dynamic and impactful advertising platform for the already highly visible Brothers Produce brand. After the acquisition, the business will continue to be managed by its current experienced, mission-driven, and service-oriented leadership team led by Martin and his son, Brent Erenwert, who runs the Houston division.
