NEW INFORMATION
- Mother’s Day – Our busiest day of the year is this Sunday, May 8. Staff, prep and be ready for a great day this year!
- Potatoes – We have received frustrating news this week from our current potato supplier, McCain’s. A year ago we negotiated a contracted price with McCain’s to supply us potato chunks, hash browns, and fries with a set price for the next 18 months. Our price was so low that McCain’s began to struggle with our account when the potato industry prices began climbing. They have since climbed to unsustainable levels. Therefore, this week, McCain’s has decided to make the unprecedented decision to dissolve our contract prices with them, mid-contract, as well as most of its other clients, and bear the cost of litigation as a cost of doing business. While this has never happened before, it comes at a time when our food costs are continuing to climb and our potato pricing has a direct impact on our bottom line. They have decided to increase our potato price by $0.24/ pound. This is substantial, so we have begun the process of looking for an alternative. We have decided to change over to our current Michael’s fresh hash brown product that we use as an alternate, and we are still looking into options for a potato and fries alternative. This fresh product is a substantial savings for us, but will come with operational adjustments to ensure a good quality product when it reaches the guest. Expect the price increase on potato chunks, hash browns and fries from McCain’s to occur within the next week. Expect the change-over to the new Michael’s hash browns in approximately four weeks. We will keep all operators informed as we know more about this evolving situation.
