Just a reminder that our orders for delivery on Monday, January 25 must be finalized by Wednesday evening, January 20.

Also, here's the latest from UNFI about the revised product numbers. I will send out new foodlink catalog around January 10.

Dear Buying Clubs,

UNFI is implementing the Product Number Expansion the weekend of January 8th-10th. This upgrade will result in the 6 digit (5 digit number plus check digit) item numbers expanding to a 7 digit (6 digit number plus check digit) item number.

Web Ordering Users:
You will begin to see the expanding item numbers when you perform a product search. The current posted pricelists will still be valid. The Web ordering site will accept item numbers manually entered with or without the leading zero.

Foodlink Users:
Your ability to send orders and/or retrieve pricelist files will be impacted. It is important to note the information below to ensure you obtain the newly revised 6 digit (plus check digit) product number pricelist prior to sending your order to UNFI.

* Midnight Friday January 8th thru 10pm Sunday January 10th : You will not be able to send an order or retrieve a pricelist.
* 10pm Sunday January 10th: Download the latest pricelist file for January 2010; this will now be in the new 6 digit (plus check digit) product number format. Send order(s) in as normal.

If for any reason the product number expansion project is postponed we will inform you. If you send an order in prior to the weekend shut down; your order will be processed as normal.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our Buying Club Services Line at 800-323-2131, ext 21158, 21116, or 21139.

Thank you for your cooperation.
