Cargill consolidates food ingredients distribution network
Six channel partners will cover the United States and Canada.
Cargill’s food ingredients and applications selected six North American distribution partners — Univar Inc., Gillco Ingredients, International Food Products Corp., Batory Foods, Pearson Sales Co. and St. Charles Trading Inc. This move optimizes the customer experience, streamlines the supply chain and creates a platform to generate sustainable growth through a select group of committed channel partners, Minneapolis-based Cargill said.
“In today’s rapidly changing marketplace, our customers need industry-leading distributor partners who can augment our in-house expertise with broad product portfolios for one-stop convenience, regulatory support, flexible lead times and minimum order quantities,” said Pat Rogers, commercial leader in Cargill’s North America food ingredients business. “We’re confident these partners can deliver on those expectations, bringing added value to our customers.”
