Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          Results of Operations

Statements in this Management's Discussion with respect to management's
expectations regarding the Company's liquidity needs and resources constitute
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause the
Company's actual results to differ materially. Such risks and uncertainties
include the sensitivity of the Company's business to national and regional
economic conditions, the effects of inflation and deflation in food prices, the
highly competitive markets in which the Company operates and the Company's
ability to implement an acquisition program. The Company's Current Report on
Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 23, 1997,
discusses some of the important factors that could cause JP's actual results to
differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Three Months Ended September 27, 1997 compared to Three Months Ended September
28, 1996.

Net Sales
- ---------
The Company's net sales of $468 million for the three months ended September 27,
1997 (the "1998 fiscal quarter") represented a 13.0% increase from the $414
million net sales level achieved for the three months ended September 28, 1996
(the "1997 fiscal quarter").

The acquisition of Arrow and Mazo-Lerch accounted for sales growth of 9.5% in
the 1998 fiscal quarter. Chain account sales increased 11.6% for the 1998 fiscal
quarter, reflecting the continued growth in sales to the Company's larger
customers and the development of new chain account relationships. An increase of
13.9% in street sales for the 1998 fiscal quarter resulted principally from the
growth of the street sales force. As a percentage of net sales, street sales
increased to 58.1% for the 1998 fiscal quarter from 57.6% for the 1997 fiscal
quarter.

Gross Profit
- ------------
The Company's gross profit increased to 17.6% for the 1998 fiscal quarter from
17.1% for the 1997 fiscal quarter. The increased gross profit was primarily
attributable to the reduced purchasing costs achieved at the Company's acquired
operations as a result of their access to the Company's centralized purchasing
programs, the increase in street sales as a percentage of total sales and the
growth in sales of the Company's private and signature brand products. Sales of
the Company's proprietary products, which generally have higher gross margins
than national brand products of comparable quality, increased to 20.5% of street
sales for the 1998 fiscal quarter from 18.7% for the 1997 fiscal quarter.

Operating Expenses
- ------------------
The increased sales volume in the 1998 fiscal quarter contributed to an increase
in operating expenses of $7.8 million over the corresponding prior quarter.
Operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased slightly from 13.9% to
14.0%, primarily as a result of the increase in street sales as a percentage of
total sales. Sales and delivery costs are generally higher for street accounts
than for chain accounts.

Income from Operations
- ----------------------
Income from operations (after amortization charges of $0.8 million in the 1998
fiscal quarter and $0.6 million in the 1997 fiscal quarter) increased 27.5%
($3.4 million) in the 1998 fiscal quarter over the 1997 fiscal quarter. The
increase in the 1998 fiscal quarter was attributable to the increased sales
volume and the increased gross profit margin.

Income Taxes
- ------------
The Company's effective tax rate for the 1998 fiscal quarter was 39.6%, compared
to 41.5% for the corresponding 1997 fiscal quarter. This decrease was primarily
attributable to the impact of non-tax deductible goodwill amortization on the
effective tax rate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
As of September 27, 1997, the Company's total long-term indebtedness, including
the current portion, was $182.9 million, with an overall weighted average
interest rate of 7.3% (excluding deferred financing costs).

                                       6
<PAGE>
 
The Company's working capital balance (excluding current portions of long-term
debt and capital lease obligations) of $178.6 million at September 27, 1997
increased by $15.8 million from the balance at June 28, 1997. This increase
resulted primarily from sales growth, seasonal inventory and receivable trends.
The effect of these factors was partially offset by an increase in the Company's
accounts payable.

From time to time, the Company considers the acquisition of other foodservice
businesses. Any such business may be acquired for cash, common stock of the
Company, or a combination of cash and common stock.

As of September 27, 1997, $69.9 million of borrowings and $10.6 million of
letters of credit were outstanding under the Company's $175 million revolving
credit facility and an additional $94.5 million remained available to finance
the Company's working capital and other liquidity needs. The Company believes
that the combination of the cash flow generated by its operations, additional
capital leasing activity and borrowings under the facility will be sufficient to
enable it to finance its growth and meet its currently projected capital
expenditures and other liquidity requirements.
