How well do you
know your customer? Do you know how many
people want to come home from work and prepare a meal from scratch, cook a
meal, and do dishes? Well, according to Steven Johnson, Grocerant Guru® at Tacoma, WA based Foodservice
Solutions® recent grocerant scorecards reveled that 83.1% all dinners prepared at home have
at least 1 meal component and 68.4% have two meal components.
So, when Meal-kit provider Sun Basket
has launched Fresh & Ready meals, which require no preparation and can
be made in as little as six minutes. The team at Foodservice Solutions® noted
that not only can consumers ‘eat clean and feel great’ but that halo of
‘better-4-you’ is extended as they don’t have to do any prep work and in many
homes no dishes, the team knew they understand today’s grocerant niche
consumers.
According to Sun Basket, “its Fresh
& Ready meals are created by award-winning chefs, and feature in-season
ingredients grown for peak flavor. The new line provides Sun Basket
customers with additional convenient meal solutions that are superior in
quality, taste and nutrition.”
For those of you who don’t know, Fresh
& Ready meals are served in premium wood trays that can go straight into
the oven or microwave. The meals are never frozen, made fresh each week and
feature organic produce grown on family farms.
Are you ready to try them? Here is how you can they are available as
part of Sun Basket's weekly meal plan, the meals start
at $10.99 per serving. Menu offerings include recipes such as
pappardelle with wilted spinach, sweet peas and fresh ricotta; shrimp paella
with fire-roasted tomatoes and bell pepper; and Southwestern turkey and sweet
potato skillet. Sun Basket's assortment of freshly prepared, ready-to-heat
meals is now available nationally under the new name Fresh & Ready.
Don Barnett, CEO of San
Francisco-based Sun Basket
stated, "Sun Basket continues to innovate in order to adapt to
consumers' growing desire for a quick dinner solution, with taste and nutrition
at the forefront," … . "The launch of Fresh & Ready meals
further emphasizes our commitment to offering healthy, high-quality options for
those looking to maintain a balanced diet even on their busiest days. Now more
than ever, Americans are looking for an alternative to cooking seven days a
week, and this extension is our fastest meal option to date."
If you have gone back to work,
are tired, but want to “eat clean and feel great fast” you just might want to
try Sun Basket grocerant niche Ready-2-Heat meals. Those meals can be cooked in an oven or
microwave in as little as six minutes, and that particular product accounted
for nearly half of all Sun Basket orders in the first half of 2020, Meyers
said. The grocerant niche is the right track for food sales growth.
