Sysco Produce: Helping Our Customers Succeed

In The Beginning
In 1986 Sysco Corporation announced the opening of their Western fruit and vegetable procurement and marketing division, based in Salinas, California. The office was established to create an at source advantage for all Sysco operating companies and provide a premium benefit to all their customers. This was an innovative step in the foodservice industry with the objective to decisively move into the fresh produce segment and retain the position of the leading source in food service distribution. recall programs. All this combined with the added dynamic of strict food safety specifications in the growth, harvesting, and processing stages, and unparalleled quality regimentation, provides premium products and exceptional value.

Sysco Brand
In 1990, Sysco stimulated revolutionary innovation by introducing its private brand, Sysco Natural.This is an absolute premium industry brand where careful selection of growers was necessary to ensure the quality regimentation is attainable on a daily basis. Since then, traditional Sysco Imperial, Classic, and Reliance brands as well as Block and Barrel, Casa Solana and Jade Mountain brands have been introduced to address all segments of the foodservice marketplace with products that meet Syscos customers needs, thus ensuring Sysco and our supplier partners a position on the cutting edge of the fresh segment of the food service industry.

Sysco Quality Assurance

As a result of Syscos representation on the West coast, the ever-critical area of product quality is addressed at the point of shipment. This became possible with the insertion of the Sysco Quality Assurance department, complementing the Sysco Produce Procurement arm. Qualified and dedicated personnel perform rigorous daily field inspections in the pre-harvest phase and intense cooler checks post-harvest to ensure specified quality standards are being met. In addition, field personnel are able to relay pertinent information back to the procurement office, which aids in key decision-making. In addition, quality assurance technicians are present in the state-of-the-art processing facilities to consult with the packers, guaranteeing the highestgrade product attainable. This structure is unsurpassed in the industry and provides the basis for consistency and integrity in all Sysco products.

Specialty Produce
The new millennium brought a significant move within Sysco with the acquisition of U.S. based FreshPoint, Inc. and Canada based Serca. The FreshPoint divisions focus on fresh specialty produce, providing a significantly larger procurement leverage as well as complete penetration into many untapped specialty markets. Syscos acquisition of Serca, Canadas largest foodservice distribution company, expanded Syscos service area to all of North America. With strict adherence to proven business models established domestically, Sysco can ensure the same standards of quality and food safety for imported products as well. By tirelessly seeking out innovative supplier partners using improved technology, Sysco is able to provide the quality and peace of mind customers have grown to expect from. From field to fork, Sysco Produce is a solutions provider for our valued customers. With Sysco Produce you are walking in a field of success. Unsurpassed product integrity, the highest food safety standards attainable, and calculated industry advancements continue to position the Sysco produce team at the peak of the food service industry.

Food Safety
The combination of the procurement arm and the quality assurance factor supports Syscos position as the leading source in the industry. This is further enhanced by the emphasis placed on innovation in areas such as new products, packaging, marketing, and distribution. Even further depth is created by the necessity for hold harmless agreements, HACCP plans, established good agricultural practices (GAP) procedures, proper insurance certification, and

Agricultural Sustainability: How Sysco is Acting Today for the Good of Tomorrow

Sysco is taking a leading role in support of a new vision for agricultural practices designed to protect the land and environment.This new vision is a result of farming practices that began in post World War II America. At that time, global demand for agricultural commodities placed increased pressure on agricultural practices, thus productivity gains were increased by greater mechanization and utilization of new technologies. Increased chemical use and specialized farming practices that favored maximized production were implemented, creating some unintentional and some unfortunate consequences.These concerns include soil erosion, chemical contamination of the aquifer, and higher levels of pesticide residual. Additional social ramifications include the decline in the number of family farms and the economic erosion of rural communities. It is Sysco's goal to ensure that highly differentiated

products are successfully produced for our future generations. Our ultimate goal is to foster the success of highly differentiated products that are profitable to all participants in the supply chain and incorporate farmer ownership and control.

Integrated Pest Control

Integrated Pest Management promotes the protection of environmentally sensitive growing areas, soil and water conservation, as well as the prudent management of crop pests and herbicide use. The Integrated Pest Management standards for Sysco's program were written with the assistance of the independent Integrated Pest Management Institute in Madison, Wisconsin and with valuable input from many of Sysco's canned and frozen fruit and vegetable suppliers. The goal of this program is the use of environmentally friendly pesticides, only as nec-

essary. This is a large initiative for our company that currently involves 70 suppliers, 140 food factories, and approximately 3.7 million acres of crop land. Sysco-branded suppliers of canned and frozen fruit and vegetables were required to submit IPM and sustainable agricultural programs. An independent third party audit during the growing season will measure supplier compliance to Sysco's IPM standards. Our effort to implement the IPM process in Peru and Mexico on vegetable and fruit commodities has produced important results. Over the past five years farmers in these two countries, who supply agricultural commodities to Sysco, have realized a 65% reduction in pesticide use. It would not be realistic to expect these dramatic reductions in chemical use in American agriculture. However, we are convinced that through these efforts we will make a huge impact toward a more sustainable food supply.

attempt to address the rapidly changing landscape of rural America. This segment of agriculture has the potential to specialize, producing value-added differentiated products. We believe niche products provided by this farmer group, if properly developed and marketed, will supply exciting menu alternatives for our restaurant customers. Menu ideas include natural beef or pork products, fresh/frozen fruits and vegetables, natural or organic poultry, and organic produce and dairy products.

Business Coalition for More Sustainable Food

The Business Coalition for More Sustainable Food (BCSF) will harness the buying power of food related companies to create more sustainable food supply systems. Business leadership is necessary to insure sufficient productivity in the future. Successful businesses need to keep abreast of trends, respond quickly to emerging markets, develop more sustainable food systems, and help shape markets for more sustainable food distribution. A growing number of consumers are demanding healthier, more environmentally friendly food products. Food companies have been responding to these demands on an individual basis. We believe it is time to come together, share vital information, and collaborate to create a more sustainable system for the generations to come. Business Coalition members will include public or privately owned companies, small and large, domestic or international in scope, which work collectively to aggregate demand, identify best practices, and improve the social, environmental, and financial performance of specific supply chains.The BCSF will address a broad set of issues including farmer income, community impact, land use, water use, packaging, pesticides, transportation and energy consumption.

Local, Seasonal Food

It is clear that consumers are demanding an understanding about the food they consume. They want to purchase more nutritious food products and know where these foods are produced. These consumer attitudes are creating a growing market for natural and organic foods which could be supplied through a local food system initiative. Our company is seeking to respond to this consumer demand for more local and sustainable produced foods by linking the farmer with the customer through the modification of existing procurement and distribution supply chains. Several Sysco operating companies are providing exciting menu alternatives of locally produced products to their customers. It is our goal to keep the procurement and distribution strategies simple by providing products to the customers as they are available, and while quantities last.

Ag-In-The-Middle Procurement
Ag-In-The-Middle is defined as family owned farms which are larger than a niche hobby farm, while smaller than the corporate-owned commodity raising enterprise. These Ag-In-The-Middle farms should be characterized as providing the principal source of income for an individual family unit. The support of this agricultural segment will be coordinated through Land Grant University support and our Corporation's interest in developing valueadded niche products. Focus in this area is critical to

1. Russet - The most widely used potato variety. ideal for baking, mashing, frying and roasting. Fresh idea: Big-Flavored Oven FriesTap into ethnic flavors by drizzling russet wedges with olive oil and dusting with seasonings like Spanish pimentn or Cajun blackening spices. 2. Red - Great for salads, roasting, boiling and steaming. Fresh idea: Roast Reds for SaladsInstead of boiling, try roasting reds to intensify their flavor and bring out their sweetness. Add vinaigrette. 3. White - The ultra-versatile round white can be used in most potato preparations. Fresh idea:Borrowed Potato SaladsToss cooked white potatoes with dressings and ingredients borrowed from other salads, e.g., Caesar dressing and grated Parmesan; or ranch dressing, chopped egg and bacon crumbles. 4. Fingerlings- Grown in every color with flavors like those of their larger cousins. Fresh idea: Finger-Food FingerlingsRoast fingerlings whole with olive oil, fresh herbs and coarse salt; serve as a shared appetizer with hot sauce or dipping sauces. 5. Blue/Purple- Originated in South America; Subtle, nutty flavor and flesh ranging from dark blue or lavender to white. Microwaving best preserves color, but steaming and baking are also recommended. Fresh idea: Red, White and BluesCombine blue potatoes with whites and reds in salads or roasted medleys to make all three colors pop. 6. Yellow- Widely used in Europe; Dense, creamy texture and golden color mean you can use less or no butter for lighter presentations. Fresh idea: Smashed Potato CakesCook, then press under a saucepan to flatten. Roast or fry until golden and serve with a signature sauce, dressing or seasoned.

Tomato: Fruit or Vegetable?

The question of whether the tomato is a fruit or a vegetable found its way into the United States Supreme Court in 1893. The court ruled unanimously in Nix v. Hedden that a tomato is correctly identified as, and thus taxed as, a vegetable, for the purposes of the 1883 Tariff Act on imported produce. The court did acknowledge however that, botanically speaking, a tomato is a fruit.

Scoville Pepper Heat Unit Chart

The Scoville heat unit is the closest thing to a standard for measuring the heat in a pepper. It is a measurement that involves adding sugar to a solution until one can no longer taste the pepper. The more sugar, the higher the spice, the greater measurement in Scoville units. Created in 1912, there are now more scientific measurements, but they generally use the Scoville units. The following chart is an approximation of heat, used to compare the relative spiciness of peppers. Pepper Type Scoville Units
