President's Message
Our business is based on fresh case-ready meats - a retail industry development that will continue to grow rapidly into the future.
What drives our confidence?
As food markets mature and the retail industry is forced to rationalize costs, differentiate themselves in the marketplace, and offer superior consumer value, case-ready offers real solutions in terms of:
- Profitability
- Consistent quality and craftsmanship and presentation
- 24/7 supply and in-stock position
- Labour management and efficiencies
- Demand forecasting and category management
- Supply chain technology
- Food safety
In fact, our retail customers tell us they’d never go back to in-store meat cutting for all of these reasons. Being able to rely on premium quality products - always in stock - is peace of mind they can take right to their bottom line.
The fabric of the retail meat industry is changing – considerably. With Wal-Mart's move to 100% case-ready, interest across the entire North American retail industry (the single largest development in the retail meat industry) has intensified. At Vantage Foods, we’re determined to be your “case-ready answer team.”
