Making Progress in FY2025
Sysco’s latest Sustainability Report highlights the meaningful and measurable actions we are taking to make a positive impact across our value chain.
Reducing Operational Waste
We refined our food donation tracking platform, shortening the time required to log donations and enabling us to make donation decisions faster. This led to a decrease in overall shrink and an increase in the percentage of food donating, contributing to a diversion rate of 93% for Canadian broadline waste.

Delivering Global Good
Sysco colleagues are purpose-driven, and we have been proud to see them volunteer their talent and time to make a growing impact during our global Purpose Month. Colleagues from more than 190 global Sysco sites supported over 1,200 charitable organizations, with a primary focus on hunger relief. These efforts contributed to the $18M+ of support Sysco provided in FY2025.
