# Sysco: Competitors & Industry Structure

## Direct Answer

SEC EDGAR classifies Sysco under SIC code 5140 (Wholesale-Groceries & Related Products). Among Swoopr's S&P 500 Equal Weight companies, 4 others share that classification; by latest reported revenue, Sysco ranks 1 of 5. A filing classification is a starting point: a company's real competitors depend on its segments, which its 10-K describes.

## How Does Sysco Compare With Its Peers?

| Company | Revenue (latest FY) | Revenue growth | Operating margin | Net margin |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **Sysco (SYY)** | $84.6 billion FY2026 | 3.9% | 3.7% | 2.1% |
| [US Foods Holding Corp. (USFD)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/us-foods-holding-corp/) | $39.4 billion FY2025 | 4.1% | 3.0% | 1.7% |
| [Domino's (DPZ)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/dominos/) | $4.9 billion FY2025 | 5.0% | 19.3% | 12.2% |
| [HF Foods Group Inc. (HFFG)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/hf-foods-group-inc/) | $1.2 billion FY2025 | 2.2% | -2.7% | -3.2% |
| [Rave Restaurant Group Inc. (RAVE)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/rave-restaurant-group-inc/) | $13 million FY2026 | 7.2% | 26.9% | 22.3% |

Revenue growth compares each company's latest fiscal year with the one before. Fiscal years do not always end on the same date, so treat close comparisons with care.

## How Does Sysco Rank Among All SEC Filers in Its Industry Code?

5 companies with annual reports in Swoopr's SEC dataset share SIC code 5140 (Wholesale-Groceries & Related Products), a wider group than the S&P 500 Equal Weight companies above. Ranks run from 1 (highest) and use each company's latest fiscal year, in U.S. dollars.

| Measure | Sysco | Median of filers | Rank |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Revenue | $84.6 billion | $4.9 billion | 1 of 5 |
| Revenue growth | 3.9% | 4.1% | 4 of 5 |
| Operating margin | 3.7% | 3.7% | 3 of 5 |
| Net margin | 2.1% | 2.1% | 3 of 5 |

A SIC code reflects the filer's main business as the SEC records it, so the group mixes companies of very different size; the median is a better guide than the average, and a rank near the top by revenue says nothing about quality.

## Where These Numbers Come From

Every figure on this page is a value Sysco reported in its own SEC filings, read from the SEC's XBRL data (accession 0000096021-26-000033 for fiscal year 2026). Ratios are computed from those reported values. Figures were retrieved on October 12, 2026; a later amendment or a new annual report can change them, and the filing itself always takes precedence over this summary.

Each fiscal year is labeled by the calendar year in which it ended, so a company that names the same period differently in its own filings (many retailers whose year ends in January) may use another label. A year is left out of the table when the SEC data set holds no value for it. A figure shown as "Not reported" means the company did not file a value under the standard tag Swoopr reads, not that the amount was zero. This page is educational and describes reported history only; it is not a forecast or a recommendation.
