Sysco Corp. will acquire Jetro Restaurant Depot LLC for $29.1 billion from billionaire Nathan "Natie" Kirsh, marking one of the largest food-service mergers in U.S. history. The deal, announced March 30, 2026, consolidates Sysco’s dominance in the wholesale food distribution sector, expanding its reach to independent restaurants and small businesses. Jetro, a cash-and-carry supplier with 130+ locations, will operate under Sysco’s umbrella, strengthening its last-mile delivery and bulk supply capabilities. Kirsh, an 88-year-old South African-born entrepreneur, built Jetro into a multi-billion-dollar enterprise before the sale, adding to his global real estate and retail portfolio. Analysts expect regulatory scrutiny but anticipate approval, given minimal overlap in Sysco’s and Jetro’s customer bases, with closure projected by late 2026.
