First Source LLC

We love life's little indulgences. We love candy. Tasty nuts and gourmet snacks also warm our hearts. We like how they taste, the memories they evoke, and the joy they bring to our friends and families. We delight in being the Source of smiles, fun and happiness from sea to shining sea. We love ensuring First Source is the best source of snacks for retailers across the US. Our story started with a retail candy shop in North Carolina where chocolate confections were made in our own kitchen. As demand for our treats grew, we added stores, production lines and a distribution center. We expanded across state lines. But we still couldn't keep up. That's when it hit us: America needed a better Source for candy. So we went to work building the First national Source of confections, nuts and specialty snacks in the US. With careful consideration we made acquisitions, built new facilities, and secured the right talent to ensure we have the product breadth, service excellence, category insights, packaging innovation, and value proposition to fuel our retail partners' growth. Like we said, we love being the Source of smiles, and our customers' smiles are the best of all. Yes, we're the largest candy and nut distributor in the US . But we didn't set out to just be the biggest. We are committed to being the best. When it comes to distributing and packaging candy and nuts, no one does it better than First Source.
