SYSCO CORP · 2026-11-04 · Importance 67 · Surprise 50

Sysco expects sales growth at the lower end of its 6% to 7% range for fiscal 2027, reflecting lower industry inflation, partially offset by the fiscal year’s 53rd week. Enterprise inflation was approximately 0.3% in the first quarter, and management now expects full-year fiscal 2027 inflation of approximately 1.0% to 1.5%, driven by moderate inflation in poultry, dairy, and meat. Management expects inflation to increase over the course of the fiscal year for U.S. Foodservice Operations and the enterprise overall.
