There is an underlining change in how consumers see
value in ready-2-eat and heat-N-eat fresh prepared grocerant food from Grocery
Stores, C-stores, and Restaurants. That
value is being determined by a new set of metrics. Included it those are: Healthy, Quality,
Price, Speed of Service, and Appearance.
Just as important is where the consumer can consume the food.
Consumer continue to be time starve, on the run,
and multi-tasking in all day-parts. They
are simply allotting less time for a full service sit down restaurant. Today
grocery stores, Convenience Stores and supermarkets and Restaurants offering
To-Go Meals are winning.

compelling reasons to buy ready-2-eat food or heat-N-eat fresh prepared food?
“Better for you”: Healthy or less time
Quality: Fresh in appearance and how it is presented
in store and To-Go
Price: in price value equilibrium (Time+ cost of
