July 29, 2002: ACH Foods selects Synectics Group for full closed-loop TPM management.

ACH Foods made their selection after interviewing many TPM vendors. ACH Foods has just purchased the Mazola brand from Unilever. Headquartered in Memphis, TN, ACH Food Companies is a subsidiary of Associated British Foods plc, a multinational business focused on agriculture, ingredients, oils, grocery, retail and packaging. Their product line includes specialty shortenings and oil-based products, specialty rice products, spray dried savory ingredients and ingredient systems, non-dairy spray dried products, and non-dairy cheese. This product line includes over five thousand individual products collectively offered by three divisions, serving all food distribution channels. The three domestic channels cover food manufacturing, retail store brands and foodservice. The name "ACH Food Companies, Inc." represents a 100-year heritage of serving the U.S. food market. More literally, the name comes from the merger of Anderson Clayton Foods (that's the "AC") and HumKo Foods (hence the "H") when ABF bought the divisions from Kraft Foods, Inc.
