Sysco 2024 Highlights: Hurricane Relief, Giving Back, and Driver Appreciation
Looking back on 2024 at Sysco, our team demonstrated an unwavering commitment to our mission of connecting the world through food and compassion. Here are some key moments from the year that highlight their remarkable contributions:
  • Hurricane Relief Efforts: Following the devastating hurricanes in the Southeast, Sysco provided over $80,000 worth of essential products, including 25,000 bottles of water and 5,000 burgers, to families and businesses in need. In Houston, we delivered 23,000 bottles of water, 10,000 pieces of fruit, and other vital supplies to cooling centers, ensuring timely support for those affected.
  • Community Giving: During Purpose Month, more than 5,200 colleagues across 190+ locations collaborated with over 1,200 charitable organizations to make a meaningful impact in our communities. From donating 10,000 turkeys for Thanksgiving to packing meals and supporting local food banks, our teams demonstrated the power of collective generosity.
  • Celebrating Our Drivers: During Truck Driver Appreciation Week, Sysco locations worldwide honored our dedicated delivery partners with heartfelt gestures such as thank-you notes, team lunches, and gift giveaways. These celebrations underscored our appreciation for the essential role drivers play in keeping us connected to our customers.
We are grateful to our colleagues, customers, and communities for making 2024 a year to remember. Here’s to achieving even greater things together in 2025!
