Company Grouping
This is the place where you can group together other locations. Here are a few examples:
Example 1: You just finished up setting up 70+ Sysco Opco's and now want to group them all together under a parent called Sysco Corporation. This is where you do that.
Example 2: You want to set up the following chains: Outback Steakhouse, Bonefish Grill and Carrabba's. You also know they are all owned by the corporate entity of Bloomin Brands. So you set up Bloomin Brands and then link the 3 other operators to Bloomin Brands. Now you can set up a contract with Bloomin Brands that covers all three entity's or you can set up separate contracts.
Example 3: UniPro is a Distributor Buying Group that is represented by many small independent or regional chain distributors. You want to set up deals with UniPro but also need to set up deals with the independents and reginal chains. Here you can set up the 10ish Ben E Keiths, then a BEK Corporate entity. Link the 10 locations to BEK Corp. Then link BEK Corp to UniPro. Now you can set up a deal with any of the 10 local Ben E Keiths, or with BEK Corp. or with UniPro.
