Grocery Prepared Food Profits Made Easy with Globe

Deli and bakery sections in grocery stores are vital revenue generators. These departments not only enhance customer experience with fresh, customizable options, but they also offer high profit margins, particularly when focusing on made-to-order sandwiches.

According to recent data, the deli market in the U.S. alone is expected to reach $108.18 billion by 2026. Couple that with data from another study that says 26 percent of consumers list prepared foods as the most important consideration when shopping, and 66 percent buy prepared snacks, meals, and more from retail every month, and the result is clear. Grocery prepared foods are pivotal for higher profits.

The King of Grocery Prepared Foods: Made-to-Order Sandwiches

Made-to-order sandwiches are key to maximizing grocery prepared food profitability. They align with customer demands for fresh, customized meals and offer retailers the ability to charge premium prices. In the bakery, similar trends hold, with artisanal and fresh bread being highly sought after for sandwiches, driving additional sales. The market for in-store bakeries is growing, and profitability often comes from offering fresh, baked-on-site products that can pull customers in from across the store based on smell alone.

Grocery Prepared Food Production Made Easy with Globe

To succeed in this competitive environment, grocery delis and bakeries need efficient, reliable equipment. Globe slicers and mixers are indispensable for deli operations. Globe slicers ensure precise cuts of meat and cheese, enhancing presentation while reducing food waste. Their durability and ease of use help deli staff work quickly during peak times.

Consider the Globe G12. Ergonomically designed, the classic motor hump is removed so as not to interfere with the receiving area. This makes operations more efficient. In addition, the output area is big enough to hold large hoagies or sub-rolls so operators can build sandwiches right on the slicer.

The Versatility of Globe Mixers

In bakery sections, Globe Mixers offer the same reliability and efficiency. These durable, gear-driven mixers feature front-mounted controls for easy access, allowing teams to work swiftly and safely. Available in sizes from 5 to 80 quarts for planetary and 130 or 175 for spiral, they can handle everything from mixing dough for breads to preparing large batches of batters.

The versatility of Globe Mixers is enhanced by the #12 attachment hub, which can be used for shredding, dicing, grinding, and more, making them a multi-functional tool in grocery bakeries and delis. Their low total cost of ownership and reliable performance make Globe Mixers a smart investment for grocery bakeries looking to maintain quality while boosting productivity. Backed by a 2-year warranty, these mixers keep bakery operations running smoothly.
