“It’s fitting that we can celebrate 20 years of partnership with an award,” commented Jeff Hogarth, SVP International, Americold. “I’m thrilled that the dedication and hard work of our entire team in Australia and New Zealand has again been recognized by one of our top customers.
Americold services more than 50 percent of Domino’s franchise locations, along with its corporate office, with everything from soap, soap dispensers and paper products, to fresh ingredients and sauces. Americold’s rebuyers work closely with Domino’s procurement teams to maintain optimal stock levels that ensure no out-of-stocks on perishable and dry products alike. Americold’s delivery teams place stock in-situ on shelves directly in the restaurants, ready for immediate use. This white glove, final yard delivery service seeds mutually respectful and influential relationships between the franchisees and their supplier.
“I’m very proud that Americold has received this external validation, and I thank Domino’s for appreciating our commitment and dedication,” said Fred Boehler, President & CEO, Americold.
“Americold has been a key supply chain partner for Domino’s Australia for 20 years. A business relationship does not last this long if there is not a shared set of values, a shared desire to grow, and transparency,” commented John Harney, Group Chief Procurement Officer, Domino’s Pizza Enterprises, Ltd. “Americold understands that security of supply is paramount, and it requires all elements of its business, from the PO to the pick, to be flawless. They have managed this against a backdrop of our growth and continue to support us as we intend to grow even more!”
Domino’s presented the award at its annual rally, where the company showcases successful franchise owners, new business processes, and the latest technology. Americold was invited to the supplier breakfast, along with other shortlist hopefuls, before being recognized for the levels of support it has been providing to Domino’s.
“Americold moves ten thousand cartons of food to our stores a day to ensure DPE can flawlessly service our customers. This is done with the minimum of fuss and the maximum of efficiency. When issues do arise, calls are answered and problems are solved—all in a very professional manner. You cannot successfully grow without key distributors like Americold,” remarked Paul Connors, Procurement Manager, Australia & New Zealand, Domino’s Pizza Enterprises, Ltd.
