| Week
of April 30, 2007 | PRICING RENEWAL: We have submitted our usage information to Shamrock Foods for pricing for the 07/08 school year. Our usage includes 55,000 cases of meal trays, 41,000 cases of cereal, 21,500 cases of corn dogs, 21,000 cases of chicken nuggets and 16,500 cases of spork kits! Our estimated volume with Shamrock Foods next year will exceed 26 million dollars. THANK YOU ASPIN MEMBERS: We want to thank our members for their support of our cooperative effort. Together we can help school districts throughout the state save money on their food and supplies purchases. We anticipate several more districts will join ASPIN for the 07/08 school year. HOLSUM WHOLE WHEAT PRODUCTS: Please note that whole wheat hamburger, whole wheat hot dog and whole wheat sub rolls will only be available to order through Holsum on Mondays. Holsum Bakery has been losing a lot of product due to orders being low. Please follow up with your independent delivery driver about availability of these products. OLIVE RECALL: Shamrock Foods has issued a statement that they do not stock any olives affected by the March 27th olive recall issued by the FDA. GROUND BEEF RECALL: Shamrock Foods has stated our products are NOT affected by this recall. VOLUME INCENTIVE DISCOUNTS: Our members earned $33,493.51 in volume incentive discounts for the third quarter! These discounts will be reflected as a credit on a future ASPIN invoice. Our members have earned $108,191.08 in discounts year to date! AMPHIRE ORDERING SYSTEM: If your district is using the Amphire ordering system to place your Shamrock orders, please remember to create 2 orders per drop site. One will be for your “Food” products, the other will be for your “Non-food” products. This is the only way the system can separate food and non-food items. If you have any questions, please call your ASPIN representative. UPCOMING SNAAZ EVENT: Mark your calendars. The School Nutrition Association of Arizona announces the 2007 Arizona Industry Seminar will be held at the Hilton Sedona Resort on Monday, June 4th. For more information, contact Cathy Wylet toll free at 866-402-9038. MOHAVE PROCESS CHANGES: Your district may have received an e-mail from Mohave Educational Services Cooperative regarding process changes for Mohave orders. Those changes are scheduled for implementation on January 1, 2008. It is important to note that the changes at Mohave WILL NOT have an impact on ASPIN processes. We will continue with our current order and payment processes. This change applies ONLY to Mohave purchases. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. SPECIAL ORDERS: When you need to place special orders with Shamrock Foods (items that not regularly stocked) they need you to place your requests a minimum of 3 weeks ahead of time. They try their best to schedule delivery of special items but the more lead-time you can give them, the better they can meet your requests. ASPIN CPA ADDENDUM: Some of our members still have not completed the revised CPA Addendum. Bette will be notifying these members. It is very important that all of our members have the same agreement. Thank you to our members that have submitted this documentation already. RAINBOW PRODUCE PRICES: Pricing for this week is included as an attachment to this update.
