US Foodservice San Francisco Awarded DSCP Contract

According to the home page of the Defense Supply Center Philidelphia website, their vision is "To be the logistics partner to the warfighter by providing supplies and services worldwide when and where needed; enhanced readiness through focused logistics with a forward presence and a world class workforce." However through the years their partnership has expanded to America's schools and non-defense department customers.

The success of the Defense Supply Center Philadelphia has been its uncompromising commitment to readiness, customer satisfaction, quality and innovation. This commitment also has fueled the continued innovative integration of commercial practices as DSCP transitions from managing items to managing the supply chain.

Each year, DSCP supplies and manages over $12.7 billion worth of food, clothing and textiles, pharmaceuticals, medical supplies, general and industrial items in support of America's warfighters worldwide and their eligible dependents. Other customers include America's school children participating in federal school lunch programs, and other non-Defense Department customers. Whether it's in the United States, Europe or the Pacific Rim, this peacetime revenue stream affords DSCP leverage in enhancing and assuring wartime readiness. As a global logistic supply chain integrator, DSCP provides a seamless supply system that can be utilized in both peace and wartime operations. DSCP's success also can be attributed to the partnerships and alliances we have established with stakeholders and customers.

Throughout its history, DSCP actively supported nearly every contingency operation, humanitarian relief effort, and every theater of operations where America's sailors, airman, soldiers, guardsmen and Marines have been deployed. DSCP has a long and heralded tradition of providing supplies and services, when and where needed, around the clock, around the world. DSCP, as a single inventory control point, will stay relevant and responsive as we transition to the agile and focused logistics of the 21st Century.

Effective January 14th US Foodservice San Francisco will be the Prime Vendor for all Bay Area DSCP locations!
