Many years ago, there used to be Sysco stores open to the general public.

I was very fond of the commercial potholders from there, but didn't know where to get some of my own since they closed all the stores.

Then one day through the magic of the Internet, I found a supplier of almost the same thing, albeit with their own logo on it.

(I'm pretty sure I bought them from Wasserstrom, but I just checked and I can't find them)

Not sure where you are, but I've been getting ads throughout the pandemic for a Sysco@Home service. Seems that with all of the restaurants shut down, they got back into the business of selling direct to consumers.

Unfortunately it doesn't look like they're selling much equipment-wise in my local store anyway. Just paper towel, plates, masks, and garbage bags.
