ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

         On February 21, 1995 (the "Closing Date"), the Registrant,
Rykoff-Sexton, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Rykoff"), together with John
Sexton & Co., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Rykoff
("John Sexton"), acquired substantially all of the assets of Continental Foods,
Inc., a privately owned Maryland corporation ("Continental").  Rykoff and John
Sexton simultaneously acquired all of the partnership interests of Duke
Associates, a Maryland general partnership and an affiliate (as such term is
defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of Continental.
Continental is a regional, full-line institutional foodservice distributor
serving Maryland, Delaware, the District of Columbia, northern Virginia,
southern Pennsylvania and eastern West Virginia.  Rykoff and John Sexton intend
to continue the business of Continental within the mid-Atlantic region.

         Rykoff and John Sexton together paid approximately $27,000,000, in
payment of the purchase price for the assets and partnership interests
acquired, subject to certain post-closing purchase price adjustments.  The
aggregate consideration consisted of approximately $24,575,000 in cash,
Rykoff's issuance of an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $2,425,000
and John Sexton's assumption of certain Continental liabilities.  The
promissory note accrues interest at a variable rate, requires quarterly
interest payments and matures on February 21, 1997.  The terms of the sale are
more fully described in the asset purchase agreement by and among the parties
which is filed as an exhibit herewith.

ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS.

         (a)     Financial Statements of Business Acquired

                 1.       Continental Foods, Inc. Financial Statements as of
                          April 30, 1994 and 1993  together with report of
                          independent public accountants.

         (b)     Pro Forma Financial Information

                 1.       Pro Forma Financial Statements.

                 Introduction

                          The pro forma condensed financial statements present
                 the historical financial statements of Rykoff, adjusted to
                 give effect to the purchase along with the pro forma
                 adjustments necessary to arrive at the pro forma condensed
                 financial statements of Rykoff.

                          The pro forma condensed balance sheet is presented as
                 of January 28, 1995.  The pro forma adjustments reflect the
                 preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets and
                 liabilities acquired along with the related goodwill and step-
                 ups to fair market value and borrowings used to finance the
                 purchase.

                          The pro forma statements of income are presented for
                 the year ended April 30, 1994 and the nine months ended
                 January 28, 1995.  The pro forma adjustments reflect the net
                 effect of interest expense, the elimination of certain
                 expenses, increased depreciation and amortization and the tax
                 effect of these adjustments.

                 of future earnings and financial position or of what past
                 earnings and financial position would have been if the

                 of the respective periods or as of any date for which such pro
                 forma information is presented.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS




To the Stockholders of Continental Foods, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Continental Foods, Inc. (a
Maryland corporation) as of April 30, 1994 and 1993, and the related statements
of income and retained earnings, and cash flows for the years then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Continental Foods, Inc. as of
April 30, 1994 and 1993, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                            APRIL 30, 1994 AND 1993



1.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Inventory

Inventory consists primarily of dairy products, meat, canned and boxed foods,
tableware, cleaning supplies, and other institutional food service products.

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market using the last-in, first-out
(LIFO) method.  If the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method of valuing inventory
had been used, net income would have been $133,344 and $77,104 higher in 1994
and 1993, respectively, and inventory would have been increased by
approximately $1,222,384 and $1,089,040 as of April 30, 1994 and 1993,
respectively.

Notes Receivable

Continental Foods, Inc. (the Company) lends money to many of its customers for
the purchase of inventory and capital expenditures.  The notes mature through
February 1996 and generally bear interest at rates ranging from 12% to 18%.
The Company has a security interest in the assets of the customers' businesses
for the majority of these notes.

Concentration of Credit

Most of the Company's business is with customers in the food service industry
in the mid-Atlantic region.  The Company is also a creditor for notes
receivable from businesses in this industry.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method
over useful lives of 5 to 10 years for delivery equipment, furniture and
fixtures and warehouse equipment, and 10 to 20 years for leasehold
improvements.
