“AMCON’s commitment to proprietary foodservice programs and custom curated store level merchandising is a value-added approach to convenience distribution. We now have the capability to offer turn-key solutions that enable our retail partners the ability to compete favorably with the Quick Service Restaurant industry. Our foodservice programs are supported by AMCON’s industry leading platform of services, as well as the foundational support of our operating philosophy centered on a superior level of customer service,” said Christopher H. Atayan, AMCON’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. He further noted, “We continue to actively seek strategic acquisition opportunities for Convenience and Foodservice Distributors, and their families, who desire to align with our customer focused approach philosophy and further the legacy of their enterprises.”
“AMCON’s broad geographic scope enables us to service customers across multiple time zones. Our customer-centric approach provides extraordinary value to our retail partners in challenging weather conditions as our AMCON teams ensure a consistent and timely flow of goods and services. As we grow, our customer base has demonstrated enthusiasm for our integrated state-of-the-art advertising, design, print and electronic display programs. These marketing tools provide our customers a competitive edge, especially in support of foodservice,” said Andrew C. Plummer, AMCON’s President and Chief Operating Officer. He further noted, “AMCON’s ability to deliver product in an efficient fashion is a key strategic benefit to our retail partners in an era of rising costs.”
For the fiscal quarter ended March 2026, the wholesale distribution segment reported revenues of $703.9 million and operating income of $2.2 million, and the retail health food segment reported revenues of $11.8 million and operating income of $0.1 million.
“We continue our relentless daily focus on managing the Company’s balance sheet and maximizing our liquidity position. At March 31, 2026, our shareholders’ equity was $112.4 million,” said Charles J. Schmaderer, AMCON’s Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Schmaderer also added, “Cost structures for Convenience Distributors have been impacted by the cumulative impact of inflation over a multi-year period. These inflationary pressures have resulted in higher operating expenses in areas such as product costs, labor and employee benefits, equipment, and insurance.”
AMCON, and its subsidiaries Team Sledd, LLC and Henry’s Foods, Inc., is a leading Convenience and Foodservice Distributor of consumer products, including beverages, candy, tobacco, groceries, foodservice, frozen and refrigerated foods, automotive supplies and health and beauty care products serving thirty-four (34) states from fifteen (15) distribution centers in Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, Tennessee and West Virginia. Through its Healthy Edge Retail Group, AMCON operates fifteen (15) health and natural product retail stores in the Midwest and Florida.
