Sometimes
companies corporate goals do not reflect consumers demands / focus but rather the
expections of Wallstreet or corporate goals and as Wing Zone rolls out it’s newest LTO the
American Summer Classic Steven
Johnson, Grocerant Guru® at Tacoma, WA based
Foodservice Solutions® wonders is this LTO missed focused? Are they
going to big? We think so. What do you
think? Here is their LTO:
“This
summer, Wing Zone is asking patriotic guests all across the country to grab an
American Summer Classic and go big or go home—literally, since the restaurant
offers take-out and delivery. The American Summer Classic, which debuted May 1
will run until the end of July and includes 20 Boneless or Original Wings in
two flavors with two Ranch or Blue Cheese; a Jumbo Order of Wedge Fries or
Kettle Chips; and a choice of Funnel Cake Fries, Oreo Churros or Fried Twinkies
for dessert, all for just $25.
“Summer
is a great time for getting together with family and friends to enjoy a good
time, and we wanted to provide a delicious way to keep the good times going
without having to worry about the food. With our American Summer Classic, we
have you covered,” says Matt Friedman, co-founder and CEO of Wing Zone. “No
matter how American Flavorholics choose to enjoy their summers this year, we
are here to help fuel the fun.”…..
The
American Summer Classic will be offered at all of Wing Zone’s domestic
restaurants. The company is set to open eight new U.S. locations in 2019 in
target markets including North Carolina, South Carolina and Alabama.
While mix
and match bundling is a key driver of grocerant niche success. There is one thing
that makes us think that this is driven by a focus on corporate goals no
customer goals. That is 65.3% of all US
households consist of one or two people.
Chilis, Applebee’s, and McDonald’s, all are offering
summer meal for less with delivery.
Price, has been a keen focus for consumers and all indications are that
will continue through the fall. $25, is not a price point to garner new
customer trial in 2019 according Johnson.
