United Natural Foods Inc. (UNFI), a major distributor of groceries to retailers across the country, said on June 9 that it had experienced a cyberattack and warned of ongoing disruptions to its business operations.
UNFI, the largest full-service grocery partner in North America, said in a June 9 regulatory filing that an unauthorized breach of its IT systems discovered several days earlier triggered an emergency response that took some systems offline, hampering the grocery distributor’s ability to fulfill and deliver customer orders.
