FRESH-CUT BENEFITS

BETTER PORTION CONTROL
Fresh-cut produce helps eliminate guess-work on how much raw product to prepare for any given shift. The price and yield of raw product can be very volatile, making it difficult to plan and execute food cost controls without compromising quality. Fresh-cut produce can help you determine exact portions and costs.

FRESH-CUT BENEFITS

DECREASED SAFETY RISK
Which has less safety risk, lifting a 50# carton of Iceberg, or lifting a 5# bag of fresh-cut lettuce? Fresh-cut can help eliminate the need for cutting, chopping or peeling, so back-of-the-house back and cutting injuries can be greatly reduced, which in turn can help reduce your insurance costs.

FRESH-CUT BENEFITS

LABOR SAVINGS
Most fresh-cut items are ready to serve, requiring little or no further food preparation. This allows you to transfer labor to more quality or service oriented areas.

FRESH-CUT BENEFITS

DECREASED ENVIRONMENT WASTE
There are hidden costs of shipping and eliminating waste associated with bulk produce. The fresh-cut industry estimates that using fresh-cut produce can reduce waste from trimmings by as much as 60%. And that’s good for the environment.

FRESH-CUT BENEFITS

STORAGE SPACE SAVINGS
Fresh-cut fruits and vegetables require less storage space and cooling energy than whole, untrimmed produce.

FRESH-CUT BENEFITS

CONSISTENCY
You don’t have to worry about constantly training personnel to trim the lettuce or cut the bell peppers the same way every time. Fresh-cut produce provides you with consistent cuts, consistent quality and consistent yields.
