The beginning of 2020 was like no other in the past fifty years. The global pandemic impacted many companies, but our mission has always remained the same—to continuously reinvent ourselves and what we offer to meet our customers’ requests. With the implementation of our new web-based inventory management system (IDS), we were able to make the shift to working from home happen without sacrificing top-quality service. Curbside pick-up also kept our Restaurant Stores fulfilling orders as needed. We’re even moving forward as a market leader by testing out a CBP packing machine in our GA distribution center to help optimize performance.

In 2021 we hit a major milestone, 50 years. In celebration of our anniversary, The Clark Associates Foundation gifted $5M to the Lancaster Conservancy to create the Clark Nature Preserve. This gift is an expression of our appreciation to our employees and the greater community.
