Food distributor serving ethnic grocers and foodservice across North America and Caribbean
Quirch Foods operates a large-scale refrigerated logistics network—500 trucks, 24 facilities, 2.3M sq ft—servicing ethnic and national grocers plus foodservice customers. The tech stack reflects a traditional mid-market distribution company (AS/400, Excel, Workday) with active modernization: Workday implementation and dashboard reporting are live projects, while hiring velocity is accelerating in logistics and ops roles. Pain points cluster around inventory accuracy, damaged-product loss, and export delays—operational friction typical of multi-region cold-chain networks.
