Foodservice growth drivers have not changed, it’s all about grocerant prepared food!



The world of food and foodservice appear to change a lot from week to week and year to year. What has not changed is according to us at Foodservice Solutions is the driver for profits, consumer frequency and top line growth, all remaining the same. That is grocerant ready-to-eat and ready-to-heat prepared food that is better for you and portable.

Foodservice Solutions is not alone in our mantra; the CEO of Tecso speaking at a conference in a session entitled “How Leadership, Loyalty and Transparency Fuel Growth” Sir Terry Leahy Said "The world hasn't changed in my view," Leahy said. "Customers still want a better life

That includes “ Convenience: With people facing time constraints, convenience stores such as Tesco Express and 7-Eleven; ready-made meals and snack foods; and self-scanning terminals are all answering the call for convenience, according to Leahy.

• Tie that with consumer seeking a simpler life style the stated “ People don't just want more and more products. They want problems in their lives solved. So those businesses, services and processes that actually solve a problem, they're the ones that are going to be rapidly adopted." In France Supermarket Chronodrive is a Drive up grocery store, and they are taking off . They blend simple with a drive up and sounds like the USA, but it’s not. This concept is simply efficient.

The growth of prepared, ready-to-eat and ready-to-heat portable better for you foods is a global trend. We have worked with companies with global footprints on the grocerant niche and large independents operators in nearly every niche. With one finding: Prepared, Portable food is Profitable!

Since 1991 Foodservice Solutions of Tacoma, WA has been the global leader in the Grocerant niche. More about Steven Johnson: http://www.linkedin.com/in/grocerant or www.grocerants.blogspot.com.
