Strategies to Boost Sales
THE ProfitPLUS PROGRAM
Clear plastic packaging helps to showcase our light, flaky crust and chunks of real fruit .
Half Pie
Showcase whole fruit made with wild Maine blueberries and flaky crust.
Quarter Pie
Showcase whole fruit made with fresh cherries and flaky crust. Packaging also available with black base.
Pie Slice
Showcase whole fruit made with tree ripened peaches and flaky crust.
What is VersatilityPLUS?
When you feature halves, quarters and slices customers can clearly see the mounds of fresh fruit and tender, flaky crust. Smaller portion sizes have lower price points which will encourage trial of new flavors and reduced waste. Quarter pies and slices are also an excellent addition to your home meal replacement and in-store restaurant offerings.
All this means more dollars at the register.
Offer lower price points without sacrificing quality.
