Consumer demand for fresh, tasty, home-inspired convenience foods is growing worldwide. And with time at a premium, consumers are becoming more discerning. They want ready-made meals, precooked meats, pizzas and sandwiches that look and taste great.
On the catering side, the last-minute rush before serving food is often stressful, inefficient and expensive. The ability to bundle and front-load tasks can improve economic efficiency and productivity, tighten control over purchasing and storage, and extend the shelf life of catered foods.
