125 Years of Good was a special initiative celebrating the customers and chefs who have defined the Gordon Food Service story.
Next led every step of the process, from concept to content gathering, writing, editing, design, layout, and production management. The team also art-directed photography for all 125 included recipes, infusing each shot with personal details—from plating to place settings—that captured the unique personality of each featured establishment.
The resulting cookbook powerfully told the GFS story, showcasing how the company has been bringing good people together over good food for more than a century.
