Not notable. No GNews/GBook hits. GHits consist of promo/directory listings for company. No reliable and verifiable sources listed or found. Refs provided are either from the company (not independent) or local. GregJackP  Boomer!   04:53, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete, as per nom. Francl (talk) 13:09, 10 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep Notable, is notable and should not be deleted. The references are regional, not just local as stated above. Please see that The Daily Item, Sunbury is a regional daily newspaper that covers a large span of area. It just happens to be located in the same city as the company which is no fault of theirs. This is a 73 year old business. Articles Creator, AmericanCitizen1 (talk) 13:36, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - Pretty clearly a promotional piece on a local food distributor. I'm not seeing anything in a cursory Google search which would indicate that GNG will be met; I believe it highly unlikely that a firm of this scale will meet special notability guidelines either.

 * Keep Meets enough guidelines from what I see. I added a reference that I found, a publication that covers 5 counties. I also found useful information on Google. This company ships items all around the world.SnackMan75 (talk) 16:38, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
