Case Studies

We partnered with a regional prepared foods team of a major grocery chain to develop over 40 varieties of soups for retail cups and hot bars and more than 60 authentic sauces from cuisines across the globe—from Peru to Jamaica, Korea to Mexico, Thailand to Germany, and beyond. Development of these recipes called on PGI’s considerable culinary and manufacturing skills, and our ability to source quality, hard-to-find ingredients.

An established regional supermarket chain asked us to develop a comprehensive soup program on a tight schedule. In a matter of months, we created 32 retail varieties and 37 soups for their hot bars. In addition to recipe development, PGI also developed retail labels and custom signage for stores.
