Trusted Sourcing

Six Michigan partners. One supply chain.

Our providers are the reason our food shows up fresh, on time, and at scale. Each is rooted in Michigan — and chosen for it.

Local sourcing, verified.

The six partners below provide everything from frozen and refrigerated distribution to fresh-baked bread, Michigan-bottled dairy, and the cloud nutrition software that runs the back-office. We've worked with most of them for years.

Together, they're how KEYS keeps the supply chain short, the food fresh, and the dollars circulating in Michigan. Once it reaches our kitchens, every lead and on-site manager handling the product is ServSafe® certified — the National Restaurant Association's gold-standard food safety credential.
