-- US Foods has been evaluating a potential acquisition of Performance Food, having expressed interest about a combination in recent months, Bloomberg reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
-- While there isn't any certainty a transaction will occur, a potential deal would create a food-distribution company with combined sales of roughly $100 billion, the report said.
-- Any deal between the companies could face regulatory scrutiny, Bloomberg said, citing Sysco's planned $3.5 billion takeover of U.S. Foods that was blocked by a federal judge in 2015.
-- Representatives for US Foods and Performance Food declined to comment to Bloomberg.
