SMART & FINAL OPTIMIZING SUPPLY CHAIN

Smart and Final has chosen LLamasoft’s Supply Chain Guru to help design and optimize its supply chain.

Headquartered in Los Angeles, where it was started 140 years ago, Smart & Final Stores LLC operates nearly 250 grocery and foodservice stores under the “Smart & Final”, “Smart & Final Extra!”, “Cash & Carry Smart Foodservice” and “SmartCo Foods” banners in California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Nevada, Idaho and northern Mexico.
