THIS THIRD AMENDMENT TO REVOLVING CREDIT 
AGREEMENT is made as of this 28th day of February, 1998 by and 
between PERFORMANCE FOOD GROUP COMPANY (the "Borrower"), a Tennessee
corporation whose mailing address is 6800
Paragon Place, Suite 500, Richmond, Virginia 23230, and FIRST 
UNION NATIONAL BANK ("First Union"), formerly First Union 
National Bank of Virginia, a national banking association, as 
Administrative Agent and as the Lender.  The Borrower and First Union 
are parties to a Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of July 8, 1996, as 
amended by an Amendment No. 1 to Revolving Credit Agreement dated 
as of August 28, 1997 and as amended by a Second Amendment No. 1 to 
Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of December 15, 1997 (the 
Revolving Credit Agreement as so amended, the "Agreement").  The 
Borrower has requested that First Union amend the Agreement further as 
herein provided, and First Union is willing to do so upon the terms and 
conditions set forth herein.
ACCORDINGLY, the Borrower and First Union covenant and 
agree as follows:
1.	Defined Terms.  Capitalized terms used herein and not 
        otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms 
        in the Agreement.
2.	Maximum Line.  Section 1.36 of the Agreement is 
        amended to read as follows:

        1.36    "Maximum Line" means $60,000,000.00.

3.	Revolving Line of Credit Note.  Section 1.44 of the
        Agreement is amended to read as follows:

        1.44    "Revolving Line of Credit Note" means the Promissory Note dated 
                 February _28__, 1998, as the same may be renewed, modified, or
                 extended from time to time, evidencing the obligation of the 
                 Borrower to pay First Union National Bank the principal amount
                 of the Revolving Loans, including the L/C Subline Loans,
                 together with interest thereon, in the amount provided in
                 Section 2 of this Agreement.

4.	Termination Date.  The Agreement is further amended
        by adding a new Section 1.49 to read as follows:

        1.49    "Termination Date" has the meaning ascribed thereto in
                Paragraph (k) of Section 2.2.

5.	Unfinanced Capital Expenditures.  The present Section
        1.49 is renumbered Section 1.50.

6.	Revolving Loans.  Paragraph (k) of Section 2.2 of the
        Agreement is amended to read as follows:
                (k)  The entire unpaid principal balance and all accrued and
                unpaid interest on the Revolving Loans shall become due 
                and payable on, and the obligation of First 
                Union to make any additional Revolving 
                Loans shall terminate on the Termination 
                Date (as hereinafter defined).  For purposes 
                of this Agreement, the Termination Date 
                shall be February _28__, 2001, provided, 
                however, that unless First Union National 
                Bank advises the Borrower in writing not 
                later than May 15 of each year, 
                commencing on May 15, 1998, that the 
                Termination Date will not be extended, the 
                Termination Date will automatically be 
                extended for a period of one year.

7.	Representations and Warranties.  To induce First 
        Union to enter into this Agreement, the Borrower represents and 
        warrants to First Union as follows:
        (a)     The Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly 
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Tennessee 
and has the corporate power and authority to conduct its business as now 
conducted and as proposed to be conducted.
        (b)     The Borrower has full corporate power and authority to 
enter into this Amendment and to incur the obligations provided for 
herein, all of which have been duly authorized by all proper and 
necessary corporate action.
        (c)     This Amendment, the Agreement as amended hereby, and 
the Revolving Line of Credit Note constitute the valid and binding 
obligations of the Borrower enforceable in accordance with their terms.
        (d)     There is no charter, bylaw or preference stock provision 
of the Borrower and no provision of any existing mortgage, indenture, 
contract or agreement binding on the Borrower or affecting its property 
that would conflict with or in any way prevent the execution, delivery or 
carrying out of the terms of this Amendment, the Agreement as amended 
hereby or the Revolving Line of Credit Note.
        (e)     The consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower as of 
December 28, 1996 and the related consolidated statements of earnings, 
shareholders' equity and cashflows for the period then ended certified by 
KPMG Peat Marwick, LLP, heretofore delivered to First Union, are 
complete and correct and fairly present the financial condition of the 
Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the results of their operations and 
cashflows as of the date and for the period referred to therein and have 
been prepared in accordance with GAAP.  The unaudited consolidated 
balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of September 27, 
1997 and the related consolidated statement of earnings for the period 
then ended, heretofore delivered to First Union, are complete and correct 
and fairly present the financial conditions of the Borrower and its 
Subsidiaries and the results of their operations, subject to normal year-
end adjustments.  There has been no material adverse change in the 
financial condition or operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries 
since the date of said balance sheets and there has been no other material 
adverse change in the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.
         (f)     No Event of Default has occurred and no event has 
occurred and no condition exists which with the giving of notice or the 
lapse of time or both would constitute such an Event of Default. No 
consent of any other person not previously received and no consent or 
authorization of, filing with or other act by or with respect to any 
governmental authority is required in connection with the execution, 
delivery or performance by the Borrower of, or the validity or 
enforceability of this Third Amendment, the validity or enforceability of 
the Agreement as amended hereby or the validity or enforceability of the 
Revolving Line of Credit Note.
          (g)     Each of the representations and warranties contained in 
Sections 3.7 through 3.21 of the Agreement is true and correct with the 
same effect as though such representation was made as of the date of this 
Amendment.

8.	Prior Agreement.  Except as otherwise expressly
amended by this Amendment, the Agreement is and shall continue to be 
in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.  The Borrower and 
First Union further covenant and agree that each reference in any note, 
agreement or other document to the Agreement shall be deemed to refer 
to the Agreement as amended by this Third Amendment and as it may be 
amended from time to time hereafter.

9.	Governing Law.  This Amendment shall be governed by,
and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the 
Commonwealth of Virginia.
