Nearly 10 years ago, Performance Foodservice’s Contigo brand was specially crafted to provide solutions to an array of Latin & Hispanic-style kitchens. A decade later, the signature product line has experienced unparalleled success, establishing itself as the authentic, go-to international brand for restaurants of all kinds — across the country.

A Partner That Gets It

Contigo means “with you,” and like the legendary Roma® brand, its origin was based on sourcing the most bona-fide, high-quality ingredients for an incredible range of family operations — from Mexican-influenced to Central American, Caribbean to South American, and everywhere in between.

That entailed placing an emphasis on partnering with expert culinarians from around the world, finding the best methods, styles, flavors, and traditions to help Latin & Hispanic entrepreneurs not only grow their business, but thrive in their communities as well.

Sourcing Is Found Here

The idea of Contigo was to help restaurants serve dishes that echoed family recipes from their home kitchens. It starts with offering masterfully made corn and flour tortillas — prized for their versatility. Contigo serves up a line of traditional cheeses, from Cotija, to Queso Fresco, and shredded and block varieties.

We’re with you in sourcing the protein options that work best in specific restaurants — including shredded barbacoa, skirt steak, and chorizo. Contigo helps operators prepare sauces, salsas, peppers, and specialties like empanadas, tamales, chile rellenos, plantains — even eye-catching desserts such as Tres Leches or Cinnamon Churro Cheesecake. No matter the size or scope of an operation, Contigo is ready to provide support.

We’re Just Getting Started

Soon, we’ll be celebrating 10 amazing, vibrant, delicious years of Contigo — but our journey has just begun. Maybe a restaurant is looking to add Hispanic elements to their menu in honor of the folks who live in the neighborhood, or a chef is trying to reach new generations that crave experiences and flavors they can’t get anywhere else. Contigo has the products, expertise, and support to help bring culinary magic to menus. And we’re constantly innovating to find ingredients that can take a local business to the next level.
