Beaverton, Ore. – At the 2015 International Dairy-Deli-Bakery Association (IDDBA) annual seminar and expo, Reser’s Fine Foods (booth #2923) will debut its newest refrigerated products. This year’s new product line-up includes a diverse array of salads, sides and desserts to give deli managers new options for increasing both bulk (behind-the-glass) and branded pre-pack sales.
According to IDDBA’s What’s in Store 2015 Deli Trends Forecast, “Millennials are likely the most frequent customers in the deli, as it appeals to several values the generation tends to share, such as convenience, variety, the ability to experiment with food without needing culinary experience, and quality and freshness of products.”
“The younger generations have been exposed to a wide variety of different ethnic cuisines and flavors boosted by the popularity of cooking and food TV shows,” states Brenda Killingsworth, retail trade manager for Reser’s. “Our team of chefs stay on top of the flavor trends and develop a wide range of salads and side dishes to help deli managers appeal to a wide range of deli shoppers — from Millennials to Boomers.”
