Re-imagine. Re-engage. Re-energize.

Our consumer, category, industry, and trend insight serves as the foundation from which we identify and introduce product, packaging, and process innovations designed to increase consumer satisfaction, stimulate incremental purchases, drive supply chain efficiencies, and improve overall category vitality and performance.

Consumers tell us they are in a “potato rut” and would serve potatoes more often if they knew of different ways to prepare them.  They also want to get dinner on the table in 30 minutes or less, and aren’t sure how potatoes can fit into that routine. By re-imagining and re-inventing how consumers perceive, prepare, and serve potatoes, we can re-engage them in the category.  The result:  a re-energized category that drives traffic, sales, and profit.

Leading the way in convenience and variety

Our new products, such as Side Delights®, Steamables and Roastables, have captured leading shares in their segments and address the need to make potatoes more convenient for today’s busy consumer. Side Delights® Gourmet Petite potatoes capitalize on increasing demand for the colorful, flavorful specialty potatoes that your shoppers have seen on televised cooking shows and enjoy in fine-dining restaurants.  In addition, we know that increased variety equals increased consumption, so we continuously work with agronomists and other resources to identify and bring to market proprietary seed varieties that will enhance the consumer eating experience and help get potatoes served with (at least) one more meal per week.
