Chemical & Cleaning FAQs

Do you need a membership or business license to buy cleaning supplies in bulk?

No membership is required to shop at US Foods CHEF’STORE. Restaurant operators, business owners, and home shoppers can purchase cleaning products and janitorial supplies without a membership. 

Can you buy cleaning supplies by the case or by the unit?

Packaging and purchase quantities vary by product. Some cleaning chemicals, paper products, and janitorial essentials come in multipacks or bulk cases, while other items may be sold individually. 

What cleaning products are required to meet commercial kitchen health code standards?

Requirements vary by jurisdiction and food service operation type. Still, commercial kitchens generally need products and procedures to clean food-contact surfaces, sanitize equipment and utensils, wash dishes, and remove grease and food debris.

  • Food-contact surface sanitizers: Products approved for the intended surfaces and use, applied according to label directions.
  • Dishwashing detergents: For cleaning dishes, utensils, and food preparation equipment.
  • Degreasers: For removing grease and residue from appropriate kitchen surfaces and equipment.
  • General-purpose cleaners: For floors, counters, and other washable surfaces.
  • Hand soap and disposable towels: To support proper handwashing at designated sinks.

Always follow product labels and applicable local health codes. Cleaning removes food residue and soil, while sanitizing reduces surface microorganisms to required levels. These are separate steps when both are necessary.

How should bulk cleaning chemicals be stored safely?

  • Store chemicals in a designated, well-ventilated area away from food and packaging.
  • Keep containers closed when not in use and retain product labels.
  • Never mix cleaning chemicals, especially bleach and ammonia-based products.
  • Follow label directions for temperature, ventilation, protective equipment, and dilution.
  • Keep safety data sheets (SDS) accessible to employees who handle chemicals.
  • Store incompatible products separately and use secondary containment when appropriate to prevent spills from spreading.
