One of the growing trends in the food industry is increased nutritional awareness, as well as increased awareness on product origins and food safety. This helps to explain the growing popularity of nutritional rating systems on shelves at grocery stores around the country.
A recent article published by USA Today, which can be found here, outlines how a growing number of grocery store chains are using systems, such as NuVal and Guiding Stars, to help customers make healthier choices when it comes to the foods they buy.
Another way to aid your customers in making healthy food purchases is to be sure that labels on items prepared or finished in your stores list the proper allergens and other healthy food decisions.
A central recipe management system that is integrated onto the scales in your fresh departments helps to ensure that you are consistently providing the right messaging to your customer’s in regards to nutritional information, allergen warnings and dietary preferences.
Additionally, a recipe management system helps to decrease the amount of time it takes for ingredient substitutions, which is helpful in the event of a recall, ingredient shortage or ingredient substitution.
