Portion-Controlled Meat & Cheese Products Serve as Value-Added Service
The market is expanding for meat and cheese processors that offer presliced portion-controlled product, interleaved or wrapped with wax paper or plastic film.
With this value-added service, processors enable quick service restaurants (QSR) and delis making fresh sandwiches to significantly speed service by eliminating the need to slice, weigh or estimate portion size. This reduces costs by preventing employees from inadvertently putting too much meat or cheese on a sandwich, while minimizing handling and adding a sanitary barrier between portions for improved food safety.
