Unity Foods: Focus on What Matters
We care about sustainability.
For more than a decade, Unity Foods has led with purpose—delivering quality, locally sourced food while reimagining what sustainable distribution can look like in the Pacific Northwest.
Our Commitments
🟠 Last-Mile Logistics Partner
Dedicated to becoming a carbon-neutral distributor through efficient routes, hybrid and electric vehicle technology, and renewable energy initiatives. Our logistics team continually refines delivery patterns to minimize fuel use and emissions.
🟠 Food Carts, Fewer Cars
As the only broadline distributor focused on food carts, Unity Foods has reduced thousands of single-occupancy vehicle trips. What once required countless daily grocery store runs now happens in one consolidated, efficient delivery—saving fuel, time, and emissions.
🟠 Cleaner, Smarter Fleet
• Early adopter of hybrid technology with our first Hino Hybrid truck.
• Working with manufacturers on fully electric trucks.
• All sales vehicles are 100% electric.
• Offsetting 6 metric tons of carbon monthly through TerraPass.
🟠 Local & Family Owned
Proudly based in Oregon and voted one of Portland Business Journal’s Top 100 Companies to Work For. Our independent, people-first culture puts relationships and community before corporate bureaucracy.
🟠 Local & Low-Impact Sourcing
We’re making it easier for customers to find locally sourced or low-impact products:
1️⃣ Identify sustainable items and their sourcing.
2️⃣ Clearly label them in our catalog.
3️⃣ Market them to our customer base to encourage sustainable choices.
🟠 Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
• Reduce: Optimize routes, maximize fuel efficiency with hybrid trucks.
• Reuse: Repair and reuse pallets to extend life.
• Recycle: Provide bins near all waste receptacles to capture materials.
🟠 Hazardous Materials & Water Management
• Transitioning to certified green cleaners.
• Installing low-flow aerators and storm drain markers to protect waterways.
🟠 Energy Efficiency
Monthly contributions to TerraPass offset Unity Foods’ carbon footprint—currently 6 metric tons per month. Future goals include solar partnerships and renewable energy integration.
🟠 Community & Employee Engagement
We believe sustainability starts with people. Unity Foods is expanding employee-led green initiatives, community give-back programs, and partnerships with Clackamas County Sustainability to share our success and inspire others.
“Every decision—from the truck we drive to the partner we choose—has an impact.”
