United Natural Foods, Inc. (UNFI)

Retailers can meet with UNFI suppliers at five events across the country next year.

UNFI will bring Square Roots' farming facilities inside select distribution centers, growing produce that will be sent to grocery stores.

The new technology will allow consumers to obtain product information as they shop in stores.

Effective immediately, Angie Balian will oversee the grocery wholesaler and distributor's private brands.

The digital coupon technology provides more reliable and secure transactions for customers at UNFI's banner stores.

Erin Horvath has been appointed to serve as chief supply chain transformation officer, a newly created role.

The new facility further bolsters UNFI's supply chain.

UNFI is reacquiring three Shoppers locations and renovating two other locations in the D.C.-Maryland-Virginia area.
