Sysco and BPAA have renewed their partnership as of August 1, 2009, with stronger incentives to participating member centers. Deeper discounts for increased loyalty to Sysco brands and larger volume purchasing discounts for participating centers. The fixed margin percentages over Sysco’s actual cost assure members they are getting the best value for their dollar. Verification through audit and compliance checks give members peace-of-mind knowing that BPAA will see that prices stay in-line with the ever changing food market. This program is designed to assist the member in lowering the cost of goods, while driving revenue and profit contributions to the bottom line.
