Nationwide food distributor files for bankruptcy amid lawsuit
The Michigan-based food distributor is embroiled in a suit with a grocer over alleged withheld payments.
It's one thing for a fashion retailer to declare bankruptcy and close its doors, something that has been happening with alarming frequency. It's even understandable when, say, a furniture brand goes belly up.
But a food distributor? One could argue that food is something slightly more important than a T-shirt or a couch.
Yet years of ongoing economic uncertainty have significantly damaged all kinds of businesses, including agriculture and food production and distribution companies.
