Grocerant
niche Ready-2-Eat and Heat-N-Eat fresh prepared food continues to be a
disruptive force driving change within the retail foodservice sector. Legacy restaurant chains, legacy grocery
store chains have to adapt to the evolving consumer or risk customer migration
according to Foodservice Solutions® Grocerant Guru™ Steven Johnson.
In
fact according to the National Restaurant Association “some 75 percent of
foodservice consumption is off-premise”.
While delivery is an ever expanding point of fresh food distribution
both restaurants and grocery stores are seeing an up-tick in Ready-2-Eat and
Heat-N-Eat fresh food sold for out-of-store eating. Consumers are increasingly going to a
restaurant or grocery store in search of a ‘meal
for now solution’ according to the Grocerant Guru™.
Fast
growing 28-unit fast casual start-up Pizza Rev CEO Rodney Eckerman stated that
“despite having a model built for in-store consumption, Pizza Rev sees a
quarter of its pizzas walk out the door to-go”.
Even technology online / mobile food ordering Guru Noah Glass stated
that “There’s a large shift in foodservice to food consumed elsewhere,” …“There’s
an idea of using restaurants as a surrogate home kitchen. Someone else preps
and cooks the food, but you still eat at home.”
Kinda
reminds you of Foodservice Solutions® ground breaking research years ago on ‘The 65 Inch HDTV
Syndrome”.
Consumers never take a step back. Today
the number of ways to watch programs on your 65 Inch HDTV has increased
exponentially and so are the points of Ready-2-Eat and Heat-N-Eat fresh
prepared food according to our team at Foodservice Solutions®.
