The Top 20 US Grocerants for 2014 According to Foodservice Solutions®

The United States is a melting pot of food flavors, styles of food service, and one of the most competitive food marketplaces in the world.  The Grocerant niche is driven by multi-generational families, multi-ethnic families, and a cultural convergence of consumer’s exposure to global flavors, active lifestyles, and limited time / skill-set for cooking from scratch.  The Grocerant niche is filled with Ready-2-Eat and Heat-N-Eat fresh prepared food.  This Thanksgiving an our research shows at least one grocerant meal component will be on 84% of US Thanksgiving tables this year.
