The customer is the reason — and the only reason — we’re in business.
Our own fleet, your schedule
Bulk shipments come in from major manufacturers; our trucks and our drivers take it the last mile. No third-party freight between us and your back door.
Consultants, not order-takers
Our sales staff is trained to act as consultants to the trade — we grow when we help your business grow.
Frosty Acres private label
A private label that has been the benchmark for quality for years, backed by a McLane Company / Berkshire Hathaway supply chain.

1880
One of the oldest businesses in Weatherford
From a $40-a-month grocery clerkship to one of Texas’ most enduring distributors, the C.D. Hartnett story spans five presidents, an oil boom, and more than a century of keeping Texas stocked. Today we operate as part of McLane Company, a Berkshire Hathaway company — the same hometown service, with national supply-chain muscle.
