In May 1974, based on a “handshake” agreement with McDonald's, Ted Perlman and Bob Rocque formed Perlman Rocque Distribution, agreeing to respond to the supply needs of McDonald’s restaurants in the Chicago Metropolitan Area; four months later, the company began making its first deliveries. In February 1975, the “Perseco” packaging company was created, and two months later Perseco received its first packaging order from McDonald’s. In December 1976, HAVI Corporation was formed, with the name derived from the founders’ wives first names: Harriette and Vivian. In April 1981, HAVI Corporation opened its first office outside the U.S. in Hong Kong and began providing distribution services in Asia, starting a 10-year expansion of its global footprint across North America, Asia, Europe and beyond.
