Retailers: if you aren't stocking these babies on a continual basis, you are missing out on a product that hits all the sweet spots. They are certified Biodynamic as well as Organic; they are locally raised from a single-source farm in Trumansburg, NY (about 7 miles from Regional's home base); they come in a plant-based biodegradable clamshell with no petroleum products involved. And the bright multi-colored labels give the clams a brand recognition that will keep your customers coming back. Not many local products can offer all of that! To help build that recognition with your customer base, Remembrance is offering a special deal on a package designed for in-store demos: if you get a 24-count Variety Pack (6 of each kind: Arugula [not pictured], Field Greens, Flower Power and Spicy Greens), they throw in a complimentary 4-pack to use for display. Just tell your Regional Access sales rep that you want the Demo package. Of course, you will probably want more than that to satisfy the hordes of folks who will come stampeding back for more salads, so you can also take your pick of the best-selling varieties in 4, 12 or 24 count cases!
Other items of note: FLO's Zucchini price just went down to $14 per 20# case --and buying 10 or more will get that down to $12. Take you pick of Gold or Green.Or better yet, take both!
Also note that Stick and Stone now has Yellow Summer Squash for $1/#. Next week: Green Beans! Week after that: Tomatoes! (blight-free, so far; knock on wood)
