As the summer holidays draw to a close : how can you make sure you’re ready?

While August means the peak of the summer heat, it also means the end of holidays is around the corner. But the Covid-19 crisis means service won’t exactly be resuming as normal. To bounce back and breathe new life into their businesses, food service professionals need to reinvent themselves.

Ingenuity and safety are key. We’ve prepared some tips to help you get started.

Transparency and safety

There are no shortcuts. Although already fundamental in the food service industry, hygiene is now even more important. Covid-19 has seen hygiene become a crucial part of reassuring your customers. Welcome your customers back in the best possible conditions by being transparent and advising them of the procedures you’ve put in place, such as compulsory wearing of face masks, availability of alcohol-based hand sanitiser, spaced-out tables, increased cleaning and disinfecting of surfaces, and a preference for paying by card.

Training your teams in these procedures is essential for building your customers’ trust and bringing in more business.

Emphasis on high quality products

Though this trend has been around for a few years now, the current situation has seen it develop even further. Consumers are even more focused on buying authentic, quality products. They prioritise products made from certified basic materials like AOP (Protected Designation of Origin, PDO) Charentes-Poitou, organic, etc.

Looking to expand your current range by adding certified products, sourced on your behalf? Contact the team directly or get in touch with your regular sales representative. We have a wide range of certified organic and PDO products, along with products developed in-house and sold exclusively by Fedipat. What better way to stand out from the crowd?

High demand for snack options

As thousands of employees return to the office, there’s sure to be a big increase in demand for snacks for the lunch break.

We’ve chosen three products from our snack range to showcase:
- Savour the taste of Italy and journey to Puglia with the margherita calzone. This traditional recipe, prepared entirely by hand, will have your customers dreaming of sun-soaked Italian holidays.
- Expand your fast food offer with our deliciousleek quiche. It’s the perfect size for a lunch set menu and as it’s meat-free, it caters to vegetarians too.
- Lastly, for those looking to indulge, there’s our pork and veal feuilleté, made according to a traditional recipe from the east of France. It’s also perfect served bistro-style with a green salad on the side.
