FohBoh, Food Buyers Network Alliance Brings Savings to Restaurateurs
Posted on: Wednesday, 14 May 2008, 21:00 CDT
FohBoh, the fastest growing online social-business network for the global restaurant industry, is pleased to announce its partnership with Food Buyers Network (FBN), a group purchasing organization. FohBoh GPO™, available now, allows members to receive substantial savings on food, chemical and paper supplies.
Participating members will be able to purchase supplies through their current distributors, at the same time receiving significant savings due to negotiated discounts. These deals leverage the total purchasing volume of FBN, allowing the company to obtain lower contracted prices and manufacturer rebates for members.
FohBoh GPO, powered by Food Buyers Network, is designed to interactively engage members and inform them of savings. Members can track combined savings, pending rebate checks and deals cross-referenced with each restaurant's unique purchasing history. FBN will continuously negotiate with manufacturers to further enhance savings opportunities for members.
"We're thrilled to partner with Food Buyers Network," said Ted Cohn, President and CTO of FohBoh. "This is the first of many opportunities to bring value to our members and revenue to the company, especially during this economically turbulent period."
Stuart Amoriell, FBN Managing Director and President, shares his excitement regarding the new partnership. "The great part is that FohBoh GPO, powered by FBN, does all the work for you," Amoriell said. "Sign-up is fast, easy and free. Administrators are available to provide personal assistance every step of the way."
FohBoh and FBN will be exhibiting at the National Restaurant Association show in Chicago, May 17-20 at booth 5769. To learn more visit http://fohboh.com/gpo.
