Company DescriptionMcLane stepped up to the bar in 2010, when it acquired spirits, wine, and beer distributor Kahn Ventures in April.According to Buffet, the acquisition is part of the shared vision of Berkshire, McLane, and Kahn to develop newinnovation opportunities and to grow and lead the beverage industry. Gaining access to resources and operational bestpractices in the beverage distribution arena, McLane is now positioned for further growth in the sector. Kahn's holdingsinclude Empire Distributors and Empire Distributors of North Carolina. The Empire companies have accounts in bothNorth Carolina and Georgia.
As a dominant player in the wholesale supply business, McLane's grocery division competes in a league of giantsincluding C & S Wholesale, Nash-Finch, and Core-Mark, while its foodservice unit fights for business with such industryleaders as SYSCO, U.S. Foodservice, and Performance Food Group. Wholesale distribution continues to be a highlyfragmented industry, however, meaning the company must also compete with a patchwork of regional and localsuppliers. Mega retailer Wal-Mart accounts for about a third of McLane's revenue. East coast convenience store chainWawa is also major customer.
The company has been focused on cutting expenses and streamlining its supply chain operations. With generally lowprofit margins, McLane depends on maintaining a high volume of sales and quick turnover of inventory. It hashistorically expanded the business through acquisitions targeting regional competitors, but McLane's appetite for newpurchases has tapered off in recent years. Its last major acquisition came in 2006 when it bought convenience-storesupplier McCarty-Hull.
McLane's foodservice division expanded its client roster in 2009, inking a supply agreement with Panda Expressoperator Panda Restaurant Group. The agreement covered about 200 Panda locations in Texas and Arizona. McLaneFoodservice also supplies some 17,000 restaurants that are part of YUM! Brands' quick-service portfolio.
Starting as a family-owned grocery store, McLane expanded into wholesale distribution in the early 1900s. The McLanefamily, including Houston Astros owner Drayton McLane, sold the business to Wal-Mart in the 1990s. BerkshireHathaway later acquired McLane Company in in 2003 for about $1.5 billion.
