Become a distributor for the future
Article Abstract:
Foodservice has a big potential in doing good in the business. There has been a growing demand for new strategies and structures brought about by marketplace changes. This would divide customer base and develop product-service offerings which would fit the needs of a specific section. In meeting the challenges, the Distributor Executive should determine the objective of the business sectors to be served, develop a 'best value' approach to the operator accounts served and reassess strategies in light of the new reality and the new organizational structure.
