Jamba, Inc. and SYGMA, a national foodservice distribution company owned by Sysco Corporation, announced today their plans to form a supply chain distribution alliance. The proposed alliance will enable Jamba to consolidate distribution channels and achieve greater efficiencies in their supply chain as well as position Jamba for faster expansion of services into existing and new geographic locations.
“The move to SYGMA is anticipated to drive several improvements for Jamba Juice,” stated Greg Schwartz, senior vice president, Supply Chain, Jamba Juice Company. “We are constantly looking for ways to reduce costs and improve our overall service while focusing on continuous quality improvement. Due to SYGMA’s strong national distribution network, particularly to non-traditional outlets such as airports, universities, and malls, we expect that our alliance will not only help us achieve those goals, but also positions us well to drive additional growth.”
