PROGROCERY PROMOTION PLATFORM

We are excited to partner with Pro Grocery and offer an easier and accurate platform to capture promotional monies and streamline the submission process.  Through this platform, vendors/brokers will be able to load additional MCBs for national promotions or new promos that did not make the KeHE national promotional deadline into a portal that looks very much like the submission form that was used in the past.  This will allow for a more streamlined approach to entering information into a system.  Check out the Keeping You Informed page to learn about the latest platform upgrade that was made in April 2020.   .
