“In addition to helping us select specific flavor profiles, consumers helped us develop a convenient package design,” said Terra Nothnagel, product manager for Gold’n Plump. “Consumers said they liked individually wrapped pieces, because it gave them the option of using only what’s needed and made storage easier.”
The ability to display the products in an upright position provides retailers with “merchandising ‘wow’ and strong appetite appeal to the fresh meat case,” Nothnagel said.
