ARCOP x ArrowStream

ArrowStream, Inc. ("ArrowStream"), the leading foodservice cloud platform for supply chain intelligence, announced that ARCOP, Inc. - Arby's Supply Chain Cooperative ("ARCOP") - renewed its long-term partnership with ArrowStream. ARCOP will continue to leverage ArrowStream's supply chain visibility among a network of over 275 chain operators across 100,000 restaurant locations, 1,300 distribution locations and 10,000 manufacturers. 

With franchised and company-owned Arby's restaurants, ARCOP is a non-profit supply chain cooperative that has served Arby's since 1978. ARCOP focuses on ensuring supply chain continuity by utilizing system volume to negotiate with suppliers and distributors to establish pricing for all restaurants.  

"ArrowStream is our strategic supply chain technology partner who continues to return year-over-year value which made it an easy decision for us to renew our contract," said David Cox, President at ARCOP. "Whether checks and balances on product substitutions, price verification audits, or inventory alerting, ArrowStream's data visibility is an integral part of our system and is leveraged by over 34 day-to-day users on our Supply Chain, Procurement and Distribution teams. They are a trusted partner who is eager to evolve and grow with us."  

Since launching its partnership with ArrowStream in 2018, ARCOP has rapidly grown to over 3,300 locations resulting in increased distribution locations, more product movement, and additional supply chain complexity, making ArrowStream's supply chain visibility more important than ever. 

"ARCOP is a great customer and one that has continued to collaborate with us on our roadmap, so we are excited to see them extending their contract with us," said Jeff Dorr, President at ArrowStream. "We are always working with customers to improve our solutions that drive tangible savings throughout the supply chain. ARCOP is maximizing ArrowStream Central to ensure that they have real-time line-of-sight into their products and pricing which drives compliance, better partner collaboration, and process improvements."
