Harbor Foods

At Harbor, it's all about staying true to our roots. From the dream our founder Carl V. Erickson started 100 years ago to the dedicated leadership of our fourth-generation CEO Justin Erickson, one thing has never changed: we're all about community. We're proud to be a family business that values being genuine, friendly, and serving the places we call home. Got a Harbor story or memory?

Today is an exciting day at Harbor Foodservice - it’s our 5 year anniversary! Our Team celebrated yesterday with a get together commemorating our journey these last 5 years. When Harbor started this journey in 2019, we had a vision and a dream. We celebrated on a sunny Friday afternoon in Kent and began laying plans to change the landscape of foodservice distribution in the PNW. Today, we all get to experience and enjoy “Life Around The Table”, thanks to our customers, amazing team, and supportive vendor partners. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to our success these last 5 years!
