Sysco Speciality Group website portfolio appoints Umbraco and visarc
Due to our reputation for delivering exceptional digital solutions using the Umbraco CMS, Visarc was selected by Sysco Specialty Group to become it’s digital partner and tasked with overhauling the group’s entire website portfolio.
The Sysco Speciality Group brand was launched by Sysco in the Summer of 2021 to bring together its key fresh food regional speciality businesses in Great Britain. Fresh Direct, M&J Seafood, Fresh Fayre, Wild Harvest, Medina Foodservice and KFF are market leaders in fresh produce, fish, deli, ingredients, and regional food respectively, and now come together under the new banner.
In addition to a new website for the Sysco Speciality Group brand, the business also wanted to optimise its existing website portfolio which was previously supported by multiple partner agencies using various different platforms. This landscape presented various challenges including cost inefficiency, compliance complexity, and consistency of underlying design philosophy.
The team at Sysco Speciality Group approached Visarc due to our considerable experience working within the food service industry delivering both new website builds and successful migrations using Umbraco CMS.
Umbraco was the ideal solution for Sysco Speciality Group. It offers an intuitive user interface, making the content management experience for editors and site managers across the companies portfolio consistent and efficient. The flexibility of the platform also means that it can be further developed in future as digital becomes a more important channel for the business.
Our Partnership with Umbraco means our experienced developers have passed Umbraco certification courses, ensuring that clients receive the expertise they expect from Visarc.
