Great Food Demands Great Content. Great Content Converts to Sales  

We’re Calling on Our Suppliers to Enrich Their Product Content With Quality Imagery and Marketing Copy.

Great content leads to great sales. US Foods® is leveraging Syndigo’s View My Product (VMP) application for better marketing copy and images. VMP will provide you with feedback on how your data looks in our system, with a product content scorecard that identifies products recommended for updates. Publishing your validated data through your GDSN data pool is a great way to start.

The three (3) steps for updating your product content and information are: ACCESS your account, VALIDATE your items in VMP, then ENRICH your content.
