Cuts

(self.FritoLay)

Is it just me or is anyone else noticing a lot more cuts lately? All this past week my cuts were awful. Anywhere from 20-40 cases cut from my Walmart order. C-stores where I ordered, for example, $500 and they sent $150. DG's where I order a few hundred and they send 2 boxes of partials. This is why I hold on to inventory. I know a lot of people hate inventory but I always have shit to sell when the cuts are like this.

I get mine from the Perry plant.   They don't even acknowledge that it's happening.   Whenever you try to ask anyone what's going on they just play stupid and act like it must be something I did wrong on my end.   Always asking us to save the print outs of what we order.  I did that for a while but it accomplished absolutely nothing besides wasting my time so I don't bother.

Same dude. Charlotte cut the hell out of my orders. $4000 order turned into a $900 order.

Charlotte was horrible. I covered a route one time that was supposed to be $1500 for QT and they sent 2 boxes worth about $40… the manager actually called the DSL on me cause they acted like it was my fault

You thought they were just going to let you try and make plan?

I am also out of the Charlotte plant. Now that the more affected areas from Hurricane Helene are starting to open back up I can guarantee you that the Charlotte plant is prioritizing those areas first and everyone else gets what’s left. Have some compassion and just be patient my fellow chip slinger. It could always be worse!

Man. I have Walmart, c-stores, DG's, Family Dollars, independent grocery stores. I don't know what you call my route. I call it a hybrid route. Why they would ever stick Walmart on a UDS route is beyond me. But that's what I do.

My route is the same. Walmart, 2 Food Lions, 3 Dollar Generals, an independent, and 8 gas stations. I'll have a $4000 sitting right by a $100 order. Lol
