The future of the grocery industry is changing, and we are excited to be a part of it. We had the opportunity to attend the wholesale grocery distributor and retailer, SpartanNash’s Fall Expo at the Devos Place in Grand Rapids. We just got back and we are excited to share our takeaways.

1. Education

We had the chance to show SpartanNash members exactly how our equipment works and answer any questions they had, in-person.

“We were able to go over everything step-by-step, which is such an important part of the process,” said Sales Representative and Equipment Start-Up Coordinator, Jimmy Lyons.

2. Leads

SpartanNash invited members to attend the expo. We really enjoyed getting to see familiar faces and the opportunity to meet new people. 

“The leads at the very least will help us develop strong relationships that will hopefully create partnerships in the future,” said Lyons. 

3. Exposure 

We really enjoyed sharing our passion for our business and foodservice solutions with SpartanNash members. 

“It allowed us an easy, stress-free way to meet members who may not have known much about UFS, and what we can do to help members with solutions to what the members are trying to accomplish,” said Lyons.
