Jamba Juice Renews Partnership with ArrowStream

ArrowStream’s OnDemand technology ensures progressive lifestyle brand protects its supply chain visibility and uncovers savings


CHICAGO, March 07, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ArrowStream®, a foodservice supply chain innovator, today announced a license renewal of OnDemand with Jamba Juice Company, to continue to capture and resolve supply chain issues with greater accuracy and efficiency. With OnDemand, Jamba Juice® maintains control of its supply chain to ensure the highest operational effectiveness, inventory incidents are dealt with seamlessly and bottom-line savings are gained.

Jamba Juice is committed to serving the freshest high-quality foods to its customers. Their supply chain team depends upon OnDemand’s robust software to support crucial foodservice activities, including inventory monitoring, price compliance, and contract and supplier management.

“ArrowStream is our strategic partner and has enhanced our supply chain operations to ensure the freshest products and ingredients arrive at our restaurants on-time,” said Doug O’Brien, Vice President of Supply Chain.  “The decision to renew our contract is completely value-driven.  ArrowStream continuously drives innovation with their technology advancements and their deep understanding of supply chain operations. This past year when we relocated our entire corporate headquarters, we had to bring on new staff.  ArrowStream’s system allowed us to continue operations without interruption and provide a seamless transition to the new team.”

Jamba Juice is one of the latest restaurant brands to renew with ArrowStream, joining others such as Einstein Noah®, CKE Restaurant Holdings, Inc., Firehouse Subs® and Shake Shack® just to name a few. OnDemand empowers restaurant chains to quickly identify price variance savings opportunities and proactively address the most pressing threats in their supply chains by centralizing inventory, contract and quality assurance information. OnDemand’s streamlined interface eliminates the need for traditional data mining by bringing specific challenges to the forefront and by cleansing, merging and mapping restaurant data that enables them to make better cost-effective tactical and strategic decisions.

“As a result of this partnership, Jamba Juice made notable process improvements and experienced more control over product costs, allowing the company to provide uninterrupted service to its restaurants.  With this contract renewal, ArrowStream will continue to support supply chain operations, KPI reporting, business reviews, and overall best practices,” said Jeff Dorr, Chief Customer Officer, ArrowStream. “We value our Jamba Juice partnership and take pride in the success it has achieved with OnDemand.  We are committed to evolving our technology to help Jamba Juice reach all of their goals – today and in the future.”
