Sales Meeting 2/14

Exciting things are happening at Upper Lakes Foods! Several new companies, products, and team members were introduced to the ULF family at the sales meeting last Friday.

Upper Lakes will now be carrying Idahoan dry mashed potatoes and they certainly live up to their promise, “homemade taste every time.” The company uses only 100% Idaho potatoes that undergo one-touch processing, ensuring that the final product has a superior yield and taste. Contact us if you would like samples to see for yourself! Rebates are available as well, keep an eye on the website or ask your salesperson for details.

The fine folks at Trident gave the sales team a lesson on the different types of salmon, and even let us sample some. They have lots of great options for Lent, including some tasty beer-battered cod and shrimp. Durable Packaging International showed us some samples of their high quality aluminum foil and steam pans that we are proud to carry.

The very knowledgeable ULF produce buyers taught the sales team about all the varieties of mushrooms we  have (which is quite a few). The group asked some great questions about everything from shelf life and storage to application. Cameron even whipped up a delicious grilled portabella sandwich for the team to feast their eyes upon! Recipe here: http://upperlakesfoods.com/?p=1411
