Strength in Numbers

Through “STRENGTH IN NUMBERS” we have been able to provide: lower net pricing discounts, promotional incentives and quarterly rebates for food, beverage, supplies, equipment and related services. DVPG has been successful in securing savings on behalf of all of its participating members regardless of their size while maintaining the individuality of each member’s particular operation. DVPG monitors usage and communicates effective marketing and promotional programs to its members through personal contact and monthly newsletters.

The level of success of a member restaurant is directly related to its respective level of participation in programs offered to DVPG membership. DVPG’s Board of Directors is constantly working to increase our members’ revenue and purchasing power.
