GRAND RAPIDS, MI - Adding on to a string of recent changes within its executive ring, SpartanNash has announced it has promoted David Sisk to Chief Customer Officer, a new position at the company in which he will oversee customer engagements for all national accounts, independent and chain grocers, e-commerce retailers, and the United States military commissaries and exchanges.

Sisk was hired in February 2020 as President of SpartanNash’s military division, according to a press release. Since joining the retailer he has led the strategic policies, goals, and objectives of the military division, credited for growing the Defense Commissary Agency’s private label product offerings which are primarily distributed by SpartanNash. Last year, under Sisk’s leadership, the military division achieved substantial efficiencies within its network, improved its gross margin rates, and delivered over 70,000 loads to domestic military families, as well as 7,800 containers and 16 emergency airlifts to troops stationed overseas.

Before joining the team at SpartanNash, Sisk served as President and Chief Operating Officer for OSC-WEBco, overseeing worldwide strategic plans, profit and loss accountability, personnel and global operations across all military divisions, and more than 100 retail categories. Throughout his 30-year career as an executive with Procter & Gamble, he held increasing responsibilities, including leading U.S. and global shopper-based design and conceptual platform innovation across all Procter & Gamble global regions.

In his new role, Sisk will report to President and Chief Executive Officer Tony Sarsam.

“As part of our new corporate identity that we call Our Winning Recipe^™, we are focused on customer-centric innovation and creating solutions that support the diverse needs of the food retailers we serve,” said Sarsam. “David will be critical in elevating the role of the customer in our organization and driving the success and growth of these relationships.”

Sisk is a Board member for the non-profit organization Honor and Remember. He previously served as Chair of the American Logistics Association (ALA) Board of Directors and is a recipient of the ALA’s Lifetime Achievement Award.
