The discount retailer named Roxanne Weng as its chief supply chain officer following the retirement of Mike Kindy. Weng most recently served as Uline's vice president of creative operations and spent over 30 years at Walgreens, sister site Retail Dive reported. In a statement, Weng said she will focus on ensuring stores remain reliably stocked.
Her hiring follows a string of recent executive changes at Dollar Tree, including its appointment of Michael Creedon as CEO and the arrival of a new CFO in March.
Giant Eagle's c-store president flies the coop
Terri Micklin announced via email that she has left her role as president of GetGo Café + Market, the convenience store arm of Giant Eagle. It's unclear if Micklin left of her own accord or if the company parted ways with her.
Micklin's departure comes as GetGo prepares to integrate with Alimentation Couche-Tard, which agreed last summer to acquire GetGo for $1.6 billion. Micklin and Giant Eagle confirmed that GetGo Vice President of Operations Mike Maraldo will lead the future business unit.
Brookshire Grocery Company makes two C-suite appointments
The grocery company promoted Jerry LeClair to chief operating officer and hired Mandy Tomlin as executive vice president and CFO. LeClair, who joined BGC's executive team in 2019, will oversee retail operations, marketing, category management, merchandising, logistics and facility services. He previously held senior roles at Albertsons, Harris Teeter and Giant Eagle, according to the announcement.

World's beef eaters facing major price hikes ahead of barbecue season

Carnivores will likely need deeper pockets this year as global beef supplies tighten and prices head up again, in turn meaning more expensive barbecues, burgers, bolognese and steak dinners. "Global beef production is expected to contract through the remainder of the year, with an overall contraction of 2% projected for the year," according to Angus Gidley-Baird of RaboResearch, part of Dutch lender Rabobank. Some of the world's major cattle and beef producer countries expected to be affected, Gidley-Baird said, with "largest contractions" expected in Brazil and New Zealand, while Europe, the US and China are also likely to see reductions. Even if other suppliers such as Australia and Argentina remain unaffected, the contracting supplies elsewhere are likely to see the "further supporting" of already "elevated" cattle prices. Not only are global cattle markets "trending higher" this year, prices in Europe have seen an "especially strong rise in Q1 [the first quarter of the year] as domestic supplies contracted while demand remained strong." Pests and diseases are affecting cattle supplies in Europe and North America, according to the researchers, who said that although beef has not been mentioned as a commodity to be targeted for tariffs beyond the impact of general or "baseline" measures, the prospect of further trade tensions has seen some reconfiguring of markets. "Reports are emerging that Chinese buyers are looking more toward Australian, New Zealand and South American suppliers as US beef becomes unavailable or more expensive," Rabobank's researchers said. The report follows warnings in some countries that the price of "conventional" beef has reached that of usually more expensive organic beef. This time of year usually sees seasonal high demand and high prices for beef as the 'barbecue season' associated with European and North American summers approaches. Global food prices already saw significant increases during Covid lockdowns and in the wake of the invasion of Ukraine by Russia in 2022, a war pitting two major food commodity producers against each other. Prices for the most part have not returned to their pre-2020 level, with recent reports warning of further rises for staples such as coffee, cocoa, olive oil and sugar.

UNFI services disrupted by cyberattack

United Natural Foods, Inc. is dealing with "temporary disruptions" to its operations stemming from "unauthorized activity" involving its information technology systems, the grocery retailer and wholesaler disclosed in a regulatory filing Thursday. UNFI said in the filing that it took some of its systems offline as it investigates the breach, which it discovered Thursday, but did not provide details about which of its services or capabilities have been impacted. UNFI said in a statement released Monday morning that the disruption is continuing. "As soon as we discovered the activity, an investigation was initiated with the help of leading forensics experts and we have notified law enforcement. We are assessing the unauthorized activity and working to restore our systems to safely bring them back online," UNFI said in a statement. UNFI said in the regulatory filing that it has implemented workarounds to continue providing services "where possible," but did not provide additional information. The company said it is working with third-party cybersecurity experts as it looks into the cause of the incident and develops a solution. UNFI distributes groceries and nonfood products to customers at about 30,000 locations, according to its latest annual report. The company has a primary distribution arrangement with Whole Foods Market under an agreement that extends through May 2032. UNFI also runs supermarkets under banners including Cub Foods and Shoppers. The breach follows an online attack last fall that targeted systems run in the U.S. by Dutch grocery company Ahold Delhaize. That breach forced Ahold Delhaize to take e-commerce services at its Hannaford banner down for several days in addition to disrupting online operations at other chains the company runs.
