GREENSBORO, NC - As more retailers look to catering directly to consumers, The Fresh Market has become the latest chain to offer meal prep solutions with its grab-and-go “Little Big Meal” program.
Available nationwide across the grocer’s 175 stores, the “Little Big Meal” program serves to answer the quintessential “what’s for dinner?” question. According to a press release, the program will offer consumers a different meal each week to solve their dinner needs.
The Fresh Market will have a “Little Big Deal” display in each of its stores that consumers can stop by to choose from a variety of fresh ingredient options every day of the week. The program will be offered for $25 or less.
The selections for each week through the month of June will be as follows:
- May 31-June 6: Roasted Chicken Roll Ups in four flavor combinations, with a roasting kit of broccoli, red potatoes, cauliflower, zucchini, and thyme.
- June 7-13: Summer Pasta with mushroom or meat toppings, and a choice of primavera vegetable kit with four varieties of Garofalo noodles.
- June 14-20: Chicken on the Grill alongside a hand-picked vegetable grilling kit, with organic Spanish rice or a basil bell pepper, rosemary, or a Spanish style quinoa and rice mix.
- June 21-27: Kabobs with hand-picked ingredients such as seasonal vegetables or tropical fruits with pork or chicken. Also features a pita pocket bread, Mediterranean pasta salad, and choice between five Yasso Greek yogurt bars.
The Fresh Market is just the latest in a line of retailer-based meal options. Kroger, Hyvee, and Publix have also launched new programs to take on other successful platforms like Blue Apron.
