Souto Foods

Anchored in Purpose

In 2010, when Sebastian Souto established Souto Foods in Atlanta, Georgia, his vision was clear: to deliver top-tier products from Latin America and the Caribbean while offering unparalleled service. Remaining steadfast to this mission propelled Souto Foods to become one of the swiftest-growing private enterprises in the U.S., expanding its influence and capabilities. The entire Souto Foods team is deeply committed to upholding this purpose.

Driven by Passion

Passion courses through every facet of our operations, fueling our dedication to preserving Latin traditions, nourishing communities, and empowering our customers' endeavors. With Alex Lee's acquisition of Souto Foods in 2017, our enterprise experienced accelerated growth, enabling us to magnify our impact. Today, we blend the fervor and dynamism of a young company with over nine decades of industry wisdom from Alex Lee and our affiliate, MDI.

Empowered by Collaboration

Souto Foods operates in close partnership with its affiliate, Merchants Distributors, LLC (MDI). Through this collaboration, we have broadened our horizons, capabilities, and purchasing influence. Our extensive product lineup is complemented by specialized merchandising, marketing, and cutting-edge digital and technological services. By teaming up with Souto Foods, you harness the support and proficiency of an extensive network poised to deliver excellence.
