The sixth annual supplier show, which rotates between Montreal and Toronto, featured 133 vendors ranging from foodstuffs to amenities to large equipment. The all-day event has become a popular destination for the hotel community to get better educated in a single venue about the breadth of products and services offered by Avendra suppliers. “As the leading procurement services provider in the hospitality industry, not only do we aggregate and leverage the purchasing volume of our customers to create significant buying power and, consequently, to negotiate the best possible deals with key suppliers, we also invest in value-added services for our customers that they would not invest in to the same extent. This includes contracting expertise, enhanced supplier management, multi-tiered customer support, quality assurance, price-audit capabilities and in-depth data analysis,” said Afsar Khan, director, Field Support & Customer Relations Central & Eastern Canada, Avendra. “This event is just one more example of how we go above and beyond to earn our customer’s business. In fact, this is our sixth year organizing the event and every year it keeps getting bigger and better. It’s a great opportunity for our clients to learn more about Avendra’s innovative programs, to sample and see new products up-close and to speak with our suppliers about how to successfully grow their businesses. It truly is a win-win for everyone.” CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE Facebook Twitter LinkedIn E-Mail Previous Next IN THIS SECTION Company News Events Leadership Corporate Social Responsibility Careers Community Engagement Job Listings RECENT POSTS Best Practices to Help Improve Short-Term Challenges from MFD Supply Chain Delays September 24, 2021 Road to Recovery: Plan for 6 Major U.S. Supply Chain Impacts to Keep Your Operations on Track June 10, 2021 CURATOR HOTEL & RESORT COLLECTION PARTNERS WITH AVENDRA FOR PROCUREMENT SERVICES April 8, 2021 AAHOA Industry Partners Share Perspectives on Guest Satisfaction February 25, 2021 Top 3 Ways to Manage Food Costs During COVID February 18, 2021 ARCHIVES September 2021 June 2021 April 2021 February 2021 January 2021 December 2020 October 2020 September 2020 August 2020 May 2020 March 2020 November 2019 September 2019 June 2019 December 2018 November 2018 October 2018 September 2018 July 2018 June 2018 May 2018 April 2018 March 2018 February 2018 January 2018 December 2017 November 2017 October 2017 September 2017 August 2017 July 2017 June 2017 May 2017 April 2017 March 2017 January 2017 December 2016 November 2016 October 2016 September 2016 August 2016 July 2016 June 2016 May 2016 April 2016 March 2016 February 2016 January 2016 September 2015 July 2015 June 2015 May 2015 April 2015 March 2015 Building a legacy of industry leadership Avendra is North America’s leading hospitality procurement services provider.
