Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment InformationDuring the first quarter, the Company appointed separate Presidents for its Food and Commercial business units, each reporting directly to the chief operating decision maker (CODM). The Company determined these appointments required a reassessment of its operating and reportable segments. As a result of its assessment, the Company concluded that the Food and Commercial business units are two separate operating segments but meet the requirements to be aggregated into a single reportable segment, pursuant to authoritative accounting literature, as they have similar economic and qualitative characteristics. There were no changes to its other reportable segments.
The Company’s four primary reportable segments are as follows:
