Foodservice, a broad category that includes prepared and commissary foods, hot dispensed beverages and cold and frozen dispensed
drinks, continues to be a key focus for growth in the convenience
store channel, contributing 20.8 percent of instore sales in 2015 and
accounting for 33.7 percent of
gross profit dollars.

Foodservice
contributed 20.8
percent of instore
sales in 2015 and
accounted for 33.7
percent of gross
profit dollars.

The top 10 instore categories ranked by sales dollars
represent about 80 percent
of all instore sales. In 2015,
nine out of 10 top instore
categories had positive sales
and all 10 had positive gross
profit dollar growth. Factors
such as low fuel prices and
more discretionary income
in consumers' wallets drove
shoppers inside convenience stores with more
money in their pockets
to spend.
Snacking categories,
including alternative snacks,
salty snacks, candy and
packaged sweet snacks, all
had strong growth as some
consumers, especially millennials, moved toward snacking
and away from traditional
meals. This is highlighted by
the fact that for the first time,
alternative snacks, a category
driven by protein- and
energy-rich items, has landed
in the top 10.

Food Marketing Institute announced a new initiative that lays the
groundwork for a trusted business and creative partnership between
two unique grocery roles - the supermarket chef and the head of
fresh prepared foods. Titled Supermarket Chefs, this program will
help to promote sales, profits and professionalism by forging collaboration between sales leadership and culinary talent in food retail.

Supermarket Chefs will come to life at FMI Connect in June in Chicago
by partnering leading culinary professionals with their respective
executives in the fresh foods department for an intensive two-day
immersion experience together. The partnership will explore paths
supermarkets will take versus restaurants, as well as offer skill-building
activities aimed at improving professionalism within the retail food
environment.
"This fusion between left- and right-brains in the grocery business is a
smart combination for improving bottom lines and turning up the heat
on the competition for share of stomach," said Rick Stein, vice president of fresh foods for FMI.
