SUPPLY CHAIN TRANSFORMATION: GUIDE FOR SUPPLIERS MANCHESTER, CONN. GROCERY Overview The Manchester, Conn. facility will come into the self-distribution network in September 2021. The facility will combine the volume currently services out of C&S’s Suffield and Newburgh facilities, as well as seasonal general merchandise serviced from the South Hatfield distribution center into one central location. The facility will serve the Stop & Shop brand and there will be no assortment changes. C&S Relationship Since this plan involves several facilities, it has more moving parts than other transitions. PO and service discussions should continue with C&S for all POs until the September 2021 transition date. The plan includes moving Stop & Shop stores to Manchester in phases; more details will be provided as the transition nears. At a high level, vendors should plan to ship simultaneously to the Suffield and Newburgh facilities, as well as the Manchester distribution center as stores are moved to Manchester. Manchester will be stocked in two ways: by transferring C&S inventory from Suffield and Newburgh to Manchester and by directing POs from ADUSA Distribution to Manchester.

Inventory Build and Production Planning Impacts: ON TIME and IN FULL are critical for both ADUSA companies and suppliers as facilities transition into the self-distributed network. Vendors will begin seeing POs in mid-July 2021 as ADUSA Distribution begins stocking the new Manchester distribution center, which will initially be filled with product coming from C&S’s Newburgh and Suffield facilities. The process will change the billback process, since ADUSA Distribution is purchasing the product from Newburgh and Suffield and moving it into Manchester by the truckload. This means billback charges will happen upon purchase – at one time – for the total amount of applicable product on the truck. During this transition, vendors should expect to see higher billback charges running from September through the end of 2021 that will align with the larger volume of product being moved at one time. Vendors who have Bill Payer accounts should ensure there are enough funds in the accounts to cover the expected charges. For vendors who do not have Bill Payer accounts, with facility/sourcing transition ongoing, ADUSA will continue to utilize C&S for A/R billings for an undetermined period. As we reach an appropriate point of scale, ADUSA companies will internalize vendor billings and provide additional communication at that time.
