“We’re more than supply chain managers.
We represent efficiency.”
Talk about doing more: Sysco’s supply chain allows us to both deliver better service and contain our
costs. Our supply chain was designed to forecast demand better, purchase more efficiently and manage
inventory more effectively. Our first two redistribution centers and improved routing technology add
up to driving fewer miles with higher truck fill rates. And by working closely with our largest suppliers,
we are finding new ways to build efficiencies throughout the supply chain.
