Supplier help needed to drive 'delivered wholesale'

摘要

Food wholesaler Booker is seeking greater supplier involvement as it forges ahead with plans to expand its "delivered wholesale" services, following the reverse acquisition by Blueheath, a specialist in this field, earlier this year. According to Booker supply chain director Ian Keilty, closer collaboration with its suppliers is required in this and other areas of future activity, such as reducing packaging and food miles.
