The 2008 Supplier Recognition recipients were selected from more than 2,000 eligible suppliers around the world. All finalists — the “Top 100” — were selected based on key business performance metrics with critical evaluation by Sysco's U.S. broadline distribution companies, as well as its corporate Merchandising, Sourcing, Quality Assurance, and Supply Chain Services departments.
