IMPORTANT UPDATE to the Eurest Beverage Void Fill Program What is the Void Fill Auto-Shipment Program? A void is defined as the absence of a key, core (leading market share) bottled beverage product (by sku/brand) in a participating operation. Participating operations have been reviewed and identified by Region Marketing Leaders and Beverage Champions. If an account has two consecutive months of “void” product, they will receive an auto- shipment of the void product(s) in the third month. What are the key, core bottled beverage products?

IMPORTANT UPDATE to the Eurest Beverage Void Fill ProgramWhat is the Void Fill Auto-Shipment Program?A void is defined as the absence of a key, core (leading market share) bottled beverage product (by sku/brand) in a participating operation. Participating operations have been reviewed and identified by Region Marketing Leaders and Beverage Champions. If an account has two consecutive months of “void” product, they will receive an auto-shipment of the void product(s) in the third month.

What are the key, core bottled beverage products? The below tables identify the core bottled beverages that should be sold in every Eurest account, except for those with conflicts pertaining to exclusive agreements, client requirements or dietary restrictions. See participating operations list linked within the monthly report memo.

Why is Eurest implementing this Void Fill program?Eurest has worked with Coca-Cola, Pepsi and Dr. Pepper Snapple Group to determine the top-selling products that will help us achieve our 2015 beverage goals. And by doing so, these contracts include provisions of additional funding to Eurest when those certain case volumes are achieved. To ensure that we reach our targets it is paramount that our operations close voids in these products. By doing so, we maximize our profit potential.

How will operations be notified about a pending auto-shipment? On a monthly basis two sets of reporting from these key suppliers will be shared. The first report will be a “Void Notification” report. That will be shared early each month and will show all voids, per account, from the previous month. Accounts will then have until the end of the current month to purchase the void product(s).

The second monthly report will be the “Void Auto-ship List” report. This report will be shared early each month and will identify all accounts that did not purchase any of the void products in the previous two months. Those accounts will be slated to receive an auto-shipment of their void product(s) from their bottler, or broadline distributor (for the Simply items) later that same month.

What happens if accounts have a “Void” for two consecutive months?If an account has two consecutive months of “void” product, they will receive an auto-shipment of the void product(s) in the third month.

What happens if accounts do not have access to order a Void product?In some areas there may not be distribution of Dr. Pepper/Snapple (DPSG) products. Make sure to check your Model Market Vendor List on MyCompass to see if you have a DPSG authorized distributor in your area. If you do, set up an account and start ordering your DPSG products.

Coca-Cola and Foodbuy will continue to stock the Simply Orange and Lemonade products at multiple broadline distributors (Sysco/AFI) across the country. The expectation is that accounts will add these products to their shopping cart and continue to reorder and replenish this product moving forward. If necessary, submit a Stocking Request Form (SRF) or a Product Request Form (PRF) to BuySmart to ensure product availability at www.buysmart.compassmanager.com or calling 877-499-3663.

How much product will be sent in an auto-shipment? The amount of cases shipped will be contingent on the accounts’ overall beverage volume, ranging from 2 cases per void product up to 12 cases per void product.

Example: Extra Small Small Medium LargeTotal Annual Beverage Case Volume: < 1,200 cs 1,200-5,000 5,000-10,000 > 10,000Cases (per sku/brand) for Auto-shipment: 2 5 8 12

These cases may be shipped as a separate beverage shipment or added to one of your existing beverage orders. Please be sure to accept the order. If you have concerns about the shipment, please contact the BuySmart Support Desk by visiting www.buysmart.compassmanager.com or calling 877-499-3663.

When will the auto-shipment be received at the account? Auto-shipments will be delivered during the 3rd week of the month for completion no later than the last business day of the month.

Where will the products be auto-shipped from?Simply will be auto-shipped from the accounts’ designated Broadline DC. As of mid-April, the Orange and Lemonade will be stocked in many more DCs to support this initiative. All other products will be auto-shipped from the bottler that manages the distribution territory for that item (Coke, Pepsi, Dr. Pepper/Snapple).

What happens if an account received a product close to the expiration date?These products have a 90+ day shelf-life from date of production. If product is received close to the expiration date, take a photo of the product and expiration date, and contact the BuySmart Support Desk by visiting www.buysmart.compassmanager.com or calling 877-499-3663.
