Case Study: SpartanNash achieves 20% equipment cost savings with Circadian Risk

How SpartanNash Saved Money & Influenced Risk Culture with Circadian Risk

SpartanNash, a major food distributor and grocery retailer, faced challenges with decentralized risk management and inefficient resource allocation across its 20 U.S. distribution centers. Their manual, paper-based assessment process was subjective and reactive, making it difficult to proactively manage physical security. To address this, they partnered with Circadian Risk and implemented its customizable risk assessment platform.

Using the Circadian Risk platform, SpartanNash consolidated security data for all facilities and trained its teams with the system's "playground" mode. This solution enabled the company to view inherent risk and deficiencies across all locations at a glance, leading to more informed decision-making. The most significant measurable impact was an approximate 20% cost reduction on equipment in the first year, achieved by centralizing purchasing. Circadian Risk also helped SpartanNash create a proactive culture of risk and deploy remediation strategies faster.
