HOUSTON, TX - As time-saving and differentiation continue to be at the forefront for foodservice and beyond, Sysco is looking to bolster its offerings through its own Cutting Edge Solutions platform. The company has announced a slew of new products to go be launched nationwide this month.

“Cutting Edge Solutions offer our customers a variety of innovative products and solutions to better meet the needs of the competitive foodservice industry,” said Brian Todd, Senior Vice President of Merchandising. “From on trend and better-for-you menu solutions to labor-saving and more profitable options, Sysco stands committed to being our customers' most valued and trusted business partner.”

The news comes on the heels of Sysco’s partnership with Bill Gates-backed, plant-based product maker Beyond Meat® to offer its Beyond Burger™ in restaurants last week. In addition to that venture, it is releasing the following:

• Sysco Imperial Fruit & Vegetable Juice Concentrates
• Ecolab® Duraloc™
• Sysco Imperial Clean Cheesecakes
• COLEMAN® Organic Chicken
• Fire River Farms Grass Fed Beef Patties
• Premier Gold Natural Wild Caught Gulf Shrimp

The company said in a press release that the product concepts are designed to help Sysco’s customers in a constantly-evolving industry differentiate and grow their businesses.

Developed by Sysco and sourced from leading and up-and-coming suppliers, extensive research was invested to introduce concepts both distinctive and relevant to consumers. Spanning plant-based and sustainably-raised proteins, to natural ingredients and everyday favorites free from artificial additives, Sysco said that its Cutting Edge Solutions’ portfolio is designed to assist customers in a constantly-evolving industry.

And there is more to come, Sysco said, with the next launch already aimed for early 2018 and new product ideas in continuous development. As more innovations are born to consistently meet evolving demands, keep checking in with AndNowUKnow for all the latest.
