Food Distribution is Hard Business!
Did you know the U.S. retail food sector generates 8 million tons of waste annually in distribution centers and stores, or $18 billion per year in lost value because of overstocks and spoilage? On the flip side, volatile supply chain conditions including seasonality, long lead times, closures and hoarding are driving stockouts through the roof.

to Better Service Levels with Less Inventory
Wednesday | February 24th | 1:00PM Eastern
Before You Jump to Safety Stock...
The natural response is to increase inventory levels, but there's good news for food businesses... You no longer have to sit back and watch chaos in food supply chains feast on your margins.
Re-invent the Customer Experience
Fill hungry bellies, not shelves. Learn from these food distributors' "war stories" how advanced inventory planning solutions that deliver 98% forecast accuracy are reinventing the investment required to meet today's stringent expectations for great service.
