About Chad Zappia

With over four years in New Business Development at Sysco, I collaborate with businesses…

Experience

1. New Business Development

   Sysco

   Oct 2021 — Present · Buffalo, NY, US

   Partner with customers, new and old, of Sysco to help them drive sales, increase efficiencies and grow profits. I search out operators and businesses that do not do business currently with Sysco and show them how being a food distributor, especially now more than ever, does not start and end with food delivery. It is now about being a business partner, helping them grow, supporting them through challenges, and assisting them reach financials that they have set out to achieve. While providing food and goods is important, I strive to work hard for our customers, as much as any employee, except not on the payroll. Let me know how I can help your business with food offerings, concepts, sales, profitability, staff training, or any other operational need. Sysco wants to be a partner in business, not just a provider for your business.
