Meat & Poultry: US Retail Market Trends & Opportunities

During the launch, Walmart customers can find Dickey's brand of sausages in easy to find bunker displays in many stores, which will feature the products prominently in the center of the frozen food aisle. The displays will also be featured during Memorial Day weekend, making it the perfect meal for a summer kickoff barbecue or gathering.

"We are proud to launch one of our signature barbecue products in Walmart stores across the country," says Tamala Fowler, Dickey's Vice President of R&D and Purchasing. "By offering our sausages on Walmart shelves, we are offering our guests yet another way to enjoy our authentic Texas-style barbecue at home for their summer barbecue or family gathering. We look forward to a long lasting partnership."

Dickey's sausages follow the recent retail launch of its signature buttery rolls in United Supermarkets, Jewel-Osco and Brookshire Brothers grocery stores in 2015.
