Retaining its kitchen and bakery manufacturing facilities and a distribution center, Bobby Ukrop's side of the family launched the business by providing prepared foods and baked goods to its former stores (that were acquired by Martin's which has since been sold). Led by Chairman/CEO Bobby and son-in-law and President/COO Chris Kantner, foods are delivered to hundreds of supermarkets and retail locations six days a week in the Mid-Atlantic region and beyond. Its retail customers now include: Food Lion, Harris Teeter, Kroger, Libbie Market, Publix, The Fresh Market, The Market at 25th Street, and Wegmans. In addition, UHF operates Ukrop's Market Hall, a retail store offering the "best of" Ukrop's products and legendary customer service.
