This week’s report shares that center store edibles outperformed total store, up 17.8% versus the same week year ago. This was slightly higher than the total fresh perimeter (+13.2%). Natural cheese is the largest dairy category with sales of $297 million. Sales gains for random weight, non-UPC deli meat increased to +9.5%, which was well ahead of the 8.1% increase for pre-packaged lunch meat from the refrigerated area.
