Case Study: Shamrock Foods achieves scalable vendor onboarding and drop-ship readiness with SPS Commerce

Onboarding vendors of all sizes to automate distribution and drop shipping

Shamrock Foods, a grocery distributor in the western United States, needed to automate its retail supply chain and bring local, small and mid-size vendors onto EDI without burdening suppliers. Executives prioritized a careful, value-driven onboarding approach that could handle their diverse supplier community and support an expanding drop-ship strategy.

Shamrock partnered with SPS Commerce, which tailored its Community onboarding program, handled supplier communications and outreach, and provided dedicated staff and project visibility. The initiative automated order processing, created new operational efficiencies, and established an EDI-enabled supplier base that positions Shamrock to scale drop-shipping and expand product variety to retailers and consumers.
