SYY Sysco Corp

Today, Sysco Corporation (NYSE:SYY), the world’s largest food distributor, celebrated the arrival of 8 heavy-duty electric tractors to their fleet in Victoria, which serves over 1,500 customers including restaurants, healthcare and education customers. In total, Sysco now has over 130 heavy-duty electric tractors globally across the United States, Canada, United Kingdom and Sweden.

“We are excited to scale our electric truck fleet into Canada and continue our journey to meet our climate goal of reducing emissions across the enterprise. One component of our climate goal is electrifying a portion of our fleet, and our partnership with the Government of Canada, the Government of British Columbia and BC Hydro is key to helping us achieve this,” says Neil Russell, Sysco’s Chief Administrative Officer. “Electric tractors produce zero tailpipe emissions which is good for the environment and important for our customers who want to do business with a responsible foodservice distributor.”

Sysco Canada hosted an event at their distribution center in Victoria during National Trucking Week to celebrate this milestone with leadership, colleagues, government officials, and vendor partners.

A video news release with clips from the event is provided here.
