Performance Food Group migrates 100 percent of
its fleet management business to Trimble Instinct, doubling
Trimble-serviced trucks
WESTMINSTER, Colo., Nov. 21,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Trimble® (Nasdaq:
TRMB) announced today that Performance Food Group
Company (PFG) (NYSE:PFGC), one of North America's largest food and foodservice
distribution companies, has selected Trimble, as its premier fleet
management provider — servicing 100 percent of PFG's fleet business
and doubling the number of trucks managed with Trimble in-cab
technology from 4,000 to more than 8,000.
Trimble will provide fleet management and telematics solutions
to vehicles across PFG's three business segments including
Performance Foodservice Core-Mark and Vistar. All PFG vehicles will
be equipped with Trimble Instinct, Trimble's in-cab ecosystem that
seamlessly connects drivers and back-office staff to boost safety,
compliance and efficiency.
Established in 1885 in Richmond,
VA, PFG is a Fortune 100 company that delivers more than
300,000 food and food-related products to customers across the
U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico.
PFG's decision to migrate their entire fleet to Trimble comes
after years of using disparate fleet management systems across the
company's multiple sectors, complicating communication and
workflows between the company's vast network of drivers and
back-office personnel. PFG required a comprehensive solution to
manage and provide Electronic Logging Device (ELD) data that is
also compatible with PFG's in-house and third-party tools — a
solution provided by Trimble's easily-integrated technology.
"As a large distributor focused on growth, we need a single
fleet management system to support our expanding fleet," said
Len Lamkin, vice president,
Transportation at PFG. "Trimble was a great choice to satisfy our
needs. With Trimble, all our vehicles will be in sync on the same
platform, allowing us to better manage the thousands of drivers and
vehicles we have on the road."
"PFG has been a valued customer of Trimble for more than two
decades. We are pleased to continue to provide them with superior
technology and service," said Paul
Cardosi, VP of telematics & fleet management at Trimble.
"Working closely with PFG, we've streamlined their workflow, and
business needs to create a more nimble and connected transportation
experience."
