When people go grocery shopping, they want to do more than just shop for commodities, they want something special. Today we have little time to stay home and bake, create preserves or jams, or spend hours over creating soup or pastai sauce from scratch. We go to the supermarket and scan the shelves for fully or semi prepared foods that have take-home goodness.
The Specialty Food Business is shaped by the influences of myriad food traditions: local and regional American cuisines as well as international foodways. People Buy Specialty Foods because of because of taste and quality. Other reasons are recommendations from friends, impulse purchases, and purchases spurred by television food shows. Due to the weakening economy a major reason behind purchasing Specialty Foods has been “self gifting” or as an Affordable Indulgence. Also more people are eating out at restaurants less often and are creating everyday meals at home and turning them into special occasions at home.
So if you're renowned among family and friends for your famous soups, luscious patries or jalapeno jam, then the Specialty Foods Business might be your career path, or as we say, Your Recipe to Success. Specialty Foods can range from salad dressing to chocolate sauce to fragrant breads. If you can make it, you can sell it--provided you know how. The Specialty Food Business is more about marketing than cooking. It is about getting your product on the shelves and then off again into customers' shopping carts. Specialty Food Businesses are creative and challenging, and if you believe in your product, it can be extremely rewarding. Besides knowing the food, you'll need a working knowledge of how the retail food business works, safe food-handling practices, health regulations, the importance of food packaging and much more.See the 10 Steps Recipe for Success Sneak Preview Video to see what The FoodPreneur Boot Camp is all about.
