Jim Osterhaven

Paul's 33 years in the Food Business started as a teenager when he was a bus-boy. He has a well-rounded background with experience in food service operations, sales and marketing in the liquor business, food service sales in the "center of the plate", dairy, and produce for a national distributor. Paul brings that experience and knowledge to his territory to support his customers and their success.

Paul likes to be known as the "go to guy" for his customers when they have problems, challenges or new ideas they need experienced advice to help develop. He is challenged by the concept of taking ownership of his route, in other words, making certain his clients know how much he can add to their ideas as a consultant and that he truly understands what his customers' expect from their distributor.

Being part of Superior Foods is special to Paul because Superior offers high end Center of the Plate products that makes a huge difference to the quality and presentation of culinary creations at the restaurants he serves. "If you want the best, Superior can deliver it and I will service you equally well. I will find you the best answers quickly and effectively". If you want to be the best call Superior, and if you are in Central Michigan, call Paul. Let him amaze you.
