US Foods Launches 2023 Spring Scoop™; Stacey Kinkaid Comments



ROSEMONT, IL - How can you stand out from the crowd? US Foods is answering that question for its partners, offering up a slew of new solutions to capture the attention of consumers. The distributor has launched its Spring 2023 Scoop™, themed “Stand Out from the Crowd.” The recent launch features 20 products that will help operators refresh their menus.

Stacey Kinkaid, Vice President, Product Development and Innovation, US Foods“Today, diners are more interested in an intriguing new food experience than spending less while dining out, making it more important than ever that operators differentiate their menu with traffic-driving, on-trend offerings,” said Stacey Kinkaid, Vice President of Product Development and Innovation. “Seventy-six percent of diners say they are on the hunt for the next food trend when they eat out, which is why we’ve introduced unique twists on classic favorites and products with globally influenced flavors that empower our operators to build maximized menus to help drive business, and as always, save hours of labor back-of-house.”

Spring Scoop products are designed to save an operator at least 30 minutes of labor per case as compared to making the item from scratch, with some products saving up to 90 minutes or more per case, according to a press release. They can be utilized in a variety of dishes, from stars of the plate to ingredient bases for side dishes, appetizers, dressings, and cocktails.
