Atlanta,
GA – March 2018 / Newsmaker Alert / Church’s
Chicken® recently announced the yearly recipient of its best-performing
distribution center for 2017 – Performance Foodservice – Caro. The distinction
places Performance Foodservice – Caro first among 14 total distribution
centers in the Church’s Chicken network.
“Behind each great guest
experience and every franchisee success story, is a Distribution Center
who is helping the Church’s brand follow through on its promises.
2017 was an exceptional year for Performance Foodservice – Caro in terms
of quality, reliability, and service,” said Chris Ward, Senior Vice President
of Global Supply Chain Management for Church’s.
Performance Foodservice –
Caro – like all Church’s Distribution Centers – was evaluated across
a number of categories, the most important being “Distribution Management
of Fresh Chicken.” All categories are scored, weighted, and then totaled
to arrive at a final performance score for the year. The same standards
are used in evaluating all centers to ensure fairness and accuracy. Performance
metrics and scoring consists of the following:
-
20% Distribution Management
of Fresh Chicken
-
15% On-Hand Inventory Requirements
-
30% Digital Tracking Software
Scores (a composite of two different systems)
-
15% Key Item Report
-
10% Distributor KPIs
-
10% Sale of Unapproved Items
While Performance Foodservice
– Caro has often turned in excellent scores throughout the year, their
extra effort and focus elevated them to the top of the system for 2017.
As a reward, and as thanks, the entire staff at Performance Foodservice
– Caro will get to enjoy a complimentary dinner celebration from Church’s
Chicken. The event will be held at the Performance Foodservice – Caro
Distribution Center in the near future.
“We are both fortunate and
grateful to work with conscientious distribution partners like Performance
Foodservice – Caro,” said Ward. “Their work is the backbone of our international
brand reputation, and the foundation from which strong global growth is
made possible. On behalf of all of us at Church’s, I’d like to say
thank you and well done to the entire Performance Foodservice – Caro team.”
