(Photo: Business Wire)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nUNFI recently outlined the core tenets of its four-part transformation program. Key initiatives of the plan will include network automation and optimization, commercial value creation, digital offering enhancement, and infrastructure unification and modernization.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nHorvath, COO, and Martin, President of Wholesale, will join Company President, Chris Testa, who oversees UNFI\u2019s Services platform, to leverage the combined knowledge of industry veterans and new leaders, and together form a team of operators with considerable experience with these types of capability improvement programs.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThis operational leadership team, made up of UNFI veterans and new leaders, is equipped to help us accelerate improvement in our customer and supplier experience, our operating efficiency, and digital and physical infrastructure,\u201d said UNFI CEO Sandy Douglas. \u201cWith our transformation plan nearly complete and the realignment of our leadership teams in place, we are well positioned to become a unique value creator for our customers, suppliers, associates, and shareholders.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAs Chief Operating Officer, Erin Horvath will be responsible for driving project management underpinning the improvement plan, enhancing UNFI\u2019s legacy integration and physical infrastructure, as well as ensuring successful implementation of the digital, technology, and automation initiatives. Chief Supply Chain Officer, Mark Bushway, will report to Horvath and partner with her to drive improved process and standardization across the supply chain. Horvath joined UNFI in October 2022 after more than 17 years in senior leadership roles with AmerisourceBergen Corporation, a global pharmaceutical wholesale company. She brings deep expertise in driving transformation initiatives in large scale wholesale distribution systems.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nLouis Martin joined UNFI in March 2022 and has been a key leader in the development of UNFI\u2019s strategy and transformation agenda, as well as in spearheading the creation and early-stage development of the Company\u2019s digital roadmap. Steve Dietz, Chief Customer Officer, will report to Martin and continue to lead UNFI\u2019s field sales and merchandising organizations with a renewed focus on UNFI\u2019s growing regional and independently owned customers. Before joining UNFI, Martin served for 15 years in a variety of senior leadership positions with The Coca-Cola Company, including overseeing the Global Walmart Customer team, where he built leading customer service capabilities. Martin is a seasoned leader who, as President of Wholesale, will lead the evolution of UNFI\u2019s customer-centric strategy by integrating national and regional customer organizations, revenue growth management, and the commercial planning teams.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>About UNFI<br \/>\n<br \/><\/b>UNFI is North America&#8217;s premier grocery wholesaler delivering the widest variety of fresh, branded, and owned brand products to more than 30,000 locations throughout North America, including natural product superstores, independent retailers, conventional supermarket chains, ecommerce providers, and food service customers.
