The Chefs’ Warehouse has begun marketing a $625 million term loan facility as part of a planned refinancing. If completed, the proceeds would be used to repay existing indebtedness, including the current term loan facility and outstanding convertible notes, and to cover fees and general corporate purposes.

Chefs’ Warehouse selectively supplies high‑end restaurants and as a result achieves significantly higher gross margins than traditional wholesalers. Growth is driven mainly by cross‑selling and targeted acquisitions of small niche retailers, and the company is reporting double‑digit operational growth rates. Management is targeting revenue of more than $6 billion by 2030, but part of that future potential already appears to be priced in. » Plus sur finanzen.net
