Wing It.
The Perks of Expanding Prepared
Foodservice’s share of total in-store sales rose 2 percentage points last year to reach 16.75 percent, the second highest it has been in the last five years. The prepared foods category was the biggest contributor.
12.31%
consumers purchased prepared food an average of 3 times at a c-store in the past month. But competition for prepared food dollars is fierce.
Of those consumers, 56% chose a fast food restaurant when asked about alternative purchase locations.
So, how can c-stores compete?
= An Enticing C-store Combo
Industry data shows that fast food customers are fans of both wings and pizza.
Wings are sold more often with pizza than any other item except breadsticks in U.S. pizza operations.
Pizza is the #4 food item sold in the convenience channel.
But there’s a huge gap when it comes to wing sales in c-stores...
Wings rank # in a list of food items sold in the convenience channel.
Tyson Convenience can help fill that gap, and help c-stores capitalize on the huge opportunity to compete more successfully with pizza restaurants that serve wings.
