New Packaging Drives Grocerant niche Fresh Food Sales

Ovens get hotter and faster driven with the latest advances in technology and now food packaging has evolved to help food retailers sell fresh food even faster according to Steven Johnson, Grocerant Guru® at Tacoma, WA based Foodservice Solutions®.  

I hope you can join me at the NRA Show beginning this weekend in Chicago where you will be able to witness just how durable, disposable and food safe in extreme heat that packaging has become.  If you have not heard of the SIX500™ rigid trays and bowls you will soon. 

They are the first and only oven-to-table grocerant niche containers designed to withstand 525° for up to six minutes. Reduce cook times from frozen, chilled or thawed. They are perfect for a full array of grocerant niche fresh prepared meals and meal components according to Johnson.

Consider that the new SIX500 can:

1.       Reduce costs – no need for additional tableware

2.       Quickly serve to guests after heating

3.       FDA compliant up to 525° for up to six minutes

4.       Highly versatile for variety of menu items

So, if your current packaging can’t take the heat – 525 degrees, to be precise – get of out the kitchen. At least after six minutes anyway. Such is the promise of the SIX500: a fiber-based tray designed to withstand 525° for up to six minutes.

As restaurants and food processors seek to reduce cook times with extreme ovens, the oven-to-table SIX500 keeps them moving at blazing speeds by eliminating the need to transfer between cooking and service dishes. Fewer transfers also reduces the risk of cross contamination.

I hope to see all of you at the NRA Show 2019 year and be sure to check out the hottest packaging innovations, by visiting HAVI at booth 3401/3601 at the National Restaurant Association show for a demonstration and hot snack.
