Supply Chain Services today announced an agreement with VooDoo BBQ & Grill to provide supply chain management services for all company-owned and franchised VooDoo BBQ & Grill restaurants, according to a company press release.
SCS is developing a customized supply chain strategy for VooDoo BBQ, as well as providing day-to-day management of the chain's food, packaging and smallwares purchasing and distribution activities. In addition to day-to-day supply chain management activities, SCS is also VooDoo BBQ's purchasing agency of record for furniture, fixtures and equipment, signage, stainless and millwork.
"Positioned in the fastest growing segment in the restaurant industry, VooDoo BBQ is a fast casual franchise offering guests a combination of comfort foods and traditional BBQ favorites with a New Orleans style flavor and magic," said Steve Pattison, SCS general manager.
The partnership will help VooDoo increase profitability, said Glen Helton, VooDoo BBQ president.
"With SCS managing our supply chain for all goods and materials we will have a single source focused on reducing cost without sacrificing the quality of the VooDoo BBQ experience," he said. "The scalability of SCS allows us to provide the support of a much larger company and we believe that other smaller brands could benefit in a strategic partnership such as this one."
