Foster Local Procurement Relationships While Maintaining Central Control: Introducing Forager Enterprise

As a regional grocer with over 20 locations,  Roche Bros. was one of our first customers to take full advantage of the Forager's centralized Enterprise platform.  Enterprise allows grocers with multiple stores to adopt store-level buying and create direct relationships with local vendors, while maintaining the centralized control they prefer.

‍

“At Roche Bros. and Brothers Marketplace, we pride ourselves on providing our customers with a wide array of Local products. The Forager platform has enabled our stores to streamline the ordering process of dozens of these Local suppliers into one location. This has both reduced friction for the stores and improved in-stock availability for our customers…a true win-win!” 

 -- Jason Corriveau, Director of Center Store Innovation, Roche Bros.
