Sysco Future Leaders Program: Developing the Next Generation of Supply Chain Experts



09/09/2024


At Sysco, our focus extends beyond delivering top-quality products to fostering the next generation of supply chain leaders. Launched in 2022, our Future Leaders program exemplifies this dedication. Designed to develop a strong pipeline of Field Operations leaders, the initiative offers immersive experiences and extensive training. This 40-week program is structured to provide clear advancement opportunities for new college graduates, many of whom began as supply chain interns.
 
Since the program's launch, we have:
  • Welcomed 25 participants to the site-based Future Leaders initiative
  • Created diverse career pathways, securing permanent roles for the first 9 participants, including positions like Supervisors, Finance Managers, and Category Planners
  • Grown to include 16 active participants across 9 Sysco locations nationwide
 
We take pride in preparing our management trainees to excel in the dynamic world of supply chain management. Their contributions will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of Sysco and the industry as a whole.
