At Sysco, we're not just about delivering great products; we're also committed to developing the next wave of supply chain leaders. Our Future Leaders program, developed in 2022, is a testament to this commitment. Future Leaders is an initiative cultivating a pipeline of Field Operations leaders through immersive experiences and comprehensive training. This 40-week program offers a defined progression plan for newly hired college graduates, many of whom started as supply chain interns.
Since its inception, we have:
- Welcomed 25 Future Leaders to our site-based program
- Created diverse career opportunities, securing permanent roles for the initial 9 participants; ranging from Supervisors to Finance Managers and Category Planners
- Expanded to 16 active participants across 9 Sysco locations nationwide
We are proud to say that our management trainees are well-prepared to lead and innovate in the ever-evolving world of supply chain management. We look forward to seeing how they will shape the future of Sysco and the industry at large!
