Bakery
Artisan bread
Quality surpasses price as a determining factor for purchase
By John Unrein
HOW THICK WOULD YOU LIKE YOUR BREAD SLICES?
This was an unexpected, delightful question asked to me by the
bakery staff member at Harmons Grocery in Salt Lake City, Utah, during
a recent business trip at which I was purchasing a white chocolate
pecan loaf for my ride home. I chose a thicker slice option - eight slices
per loaf.
This response deserves attention because it lies at the
heart of the discussion about the importance of in-store
connections for retail bakery success - at a time in
which many consumers are feeling left out of the
equation.
Not connecting with bakery shoppers in some
individual fashion during their visits to your
stores is like skipping the closing argument of a
jury trial. You're not going to win loyalty.
In 2025 and beyond, value will no longer be just about dollar signs
- in fact, we already saw value trending in that direction this year,
according to the 2025 Trends Report from Datassential. Consumers'
way of thinking about value and what it means has shifted, and
the value strategies businesses create in 2025 should take into
consideration this more nuanced and complex " new value. "
When deciding if food at a grocery store is good value or
not, 56% of shoppers rated the quality of product as good
value, followed by great taste 52%, low price 47%, and
healthy/nutritious 29%.
This is why it is important to distinguish
new store openings by America's leading
supermarkets.
In December, Publix Super Markets opened
a new 48,387 square-foot store at the Shoppes
Avocado bread
Quality drives traffic and repeat purchases, as well as new product applications that are on-trend with shoppers. The Avocado Bread
Company, an innovative brand from Anthony & Sons Bakery Inc. specializing in avocado-based bread products, launched its entire
product line at Rouses Supermarkets. Customers can now enjoy all offerings, crafted with fresh avocados, from The Avocado Bread
Company for purchase at their local Rouses. The brand's full product line includes Sliced Avocado Seeds & Grains Bread, Avocado
Dinner Rolls, Avocado Ciabatta Buns and Avocado Italian Take & Bake Bread. In addition to avocados, every loaf is made with an
original blend of guacamole spices and packed with powerful nutrients, including healthy fats, fiber and antioxidants, and coated
with healthy grains including sunflower, oats and cracked wheat. Additionally, Rouses Supermarkets will be the first to launch The
Avocado Bread Company's new Avocado Everything Bagels.
