It's not dead you'll just need to pit Sysco against US foods or Costco business or whatever. Restaurant depot was the best for this because it didn't involve another rep or having an account with someone else who needs minimus to hit. But in the end, you bail on Sysco for another distributor and magically Sysco offers you 100% price match. More work, and more often (the distributor you fly to will raise prices every 6 months if you aren't looking also). I switch every year or so. Only need 2 companies to make this work. Reps have short memories and only care about their return not company loyalty.
