Seafood

Merchandising
BY ANDY NELSON

WE SAT DOWN WITH DEB KREIDER, director
of meat and seafood at Carlisle, Pennsylvaniabased GIANT Food Stores, for an exclusive look
at how the East Coast chain sets its stores apart
through innovative seafood merchandising.
What is GIANT'S philosophy/best practices for
merchandising seafood in the fresh perimeter?
At GIANT, quality is among the most important
factors when it comes to seafood. Our practice
is that if you wouldn`t buy it, don`t put it out.
Sustainability is also paramount. We only sell 100%
sustainable seafood in our fresh case. We encourage
our seafood associates to create excitement in
the service case by creating impactful visual
displays with clear and informative signage.
How has the company's approach to seafood
merchandising changed over the years?
We are constantly changing to meet the needs of our
customers. Our customers continue to ask for Wild
Caught, sourced from within the U.S., seafood. We
have also seen more of a demand for salmon over the
years, so we continue to expand our selection and
place salmon in the ad at least monthly. We're also
always exploring ways to offer more convenient meal
solutions to help make our customers lives easier.
What makes a successful seafood case?
A successful seafood case starts with high-quality, fresh
product, offered at a great value with engaging and
knowledgeable associates ready to serve customers.
