Largest Grocery Retail Group on the East Coast Seeks VBEs to Participate in Matchmaking Program.
Ahold Delhaize seeks for products from a large range of categories to support the needs of their customers across their 5 brands.
NaVOBA Corporate Ally, Ahold Delhaize USA is the parent company of leading omnichannel grocery brands, such as Food Lion, which together make up the largest grocery retail group on the East Coast. They just announced the application for participation in their second Supplier Diversity Matchmaking Program of 2024 in partnership with ECRM and RangeMe.
They’re looking for participants for this virtual program, which is aimed at showcasing businesses from individuals or groups that have been historically underrepresented or underserved to the companies of Ahold Delhaize USA.
Ahold Delhaize seeks for products from a large range of categories to support the needs of their customers across their 5 brands.
Interested VBEs will need to register via RangeMe, an online platform that enables retail buyers to efficiently discover and purchase innovative and emerging products while empowering suppliers to manage and grow their brands with the tools, insights, and services they need.
There is no cost to participate in the matchmaker program. RangeMe does provide a subscription service to help increase visibility and retail readiness for consumer-facing brands. We do not endorse the subscription model, but if our NaVOBA-Certified VBEs see value and choose to subscribe, there is a significant discount offered through our agreement.
Also, we strongly encourage any of our VBEs who do have products on retailers’ shelves to include the Veteran Owned Logo on the product packaging. This is a great way to build customer loyalty.
If you’re interested in the discount or the Veteran Owned logo, please email us at inquiries@navoba.org.
