Eastern Railroad Discussion > Sexton Foods, PennsylvaniaDate: 11/20/00 20:26 Sexton Foods, Pennsylvania Author: slugbug noticed a sharp new Walthers model car--a 50' North american smoothside insulated boxcar, lettered for NADX #50164 with the Sexton Foods herald, with a return route stencil which reads: when empty return to the Sexton Company, McKees Rocks, PA
Does anyone have any information on the Sexton company? What did they ship? Are they still in business? thanks Date: 11/20/00 21:25 RE: Sexton Foods, Pennsylvania Author: lynnpowell Sexton Foods is a distributor of canned foods for the restaurant industry.
Date: 11/20/00 22:58 RE: Sexton Foods, Pennsylvania Author: Kevin-D Schools too, I think.
Date: 11/21/00 11:23 RE: Sexton Foods, Pennsylvania Author: flagstop Sexton is/was one of the large food service companies serving instituional markets, largely in the eastern U.S. It was in tyhe same league as Sysco, PYA/Monarch, and others. A.E. Sexton, which may be related, has/had a presence in Malvern, PA. I believe it is now part of Rykoff-Sexton.
Date: 01/28/01 16:07 RE: Sexton Foods, Pennsylvania Author: EMFrimbo I believe that Sexton merged with Rykoff some years ago. I think they may have been headquartered in or near Chicago. I went to school with a Sexton who lived in Winnetka and whose father was the president or CEO of Sexton foods as I recall.
