So that we can continue to provide the high-quality products our customers expect, Sysco maintains one of the most reliable and sophisticated temperature-controlled supply chains in the business. Our service level, one of the best in the industry, is higher than 99 percent across nearly one billion pieces shipped annually. And we continue to improve our operations every day, in every way — from our hub-and-spoke system of RDCs to cutting-edge warehouse technology upgrades to the XY routing system we use to make customer deliveries more timely and energy efficient. This means that you can rely on Sysco to deliver as ordered and on time — day after day and time after time.

Trucks

To ensure that our cold chain is never broken and that the best possible product reaches our customers with every truckload, our trucks operate like mini warehouses by incorporating many of the same temperature control innovations as our most advanced storage facilities. Sysco operates one of the largest and most sophisticated fleets in the business, including technologically advanced refrigeration units and ultra-efficient LNG-powered vehicles.
