There’s no doubt that America has the best beef in the world. As consumers become

more discerning, the demand for premium quality beef continues to explode, taking

U.S. beef to the next level. Count on Braveheart to lead the industry with a serious

commitment to quality. Our Black Angus cattle are raised traditionally in the

Midwest on an all vegetarian, corn based diet for superior flavor and tenderness.

Why should you use Facebook?

Facebook is where your customers are! Because there are so many

people on Facebook, the chances of reaching your customers are

much higher than any other marketing tool you can think of!

A few Facebook notes: It is important to understand the difference between a personal page and a business page. A personal page contains information about that person such as where they live, and work and their date of birth. A business page describes the type of business and the location, as well as possibly displays special offers and much more! Before you can create a page for your business, you will need to create a personal page for yourself as the admin. Whenyoufinishsettingupyourbusiness page, Facebook will give you suggestions for how to get fans. Facebook allows you to create ads,whichcanbeveryspecifictowardsyour target audience. You can specify certain locations, demographics, interests, education, work, and even how your target audience is connected with you on Facebook.

Which social media platform is right for you?

Facebook - the most popular social network where sharing useful content and asking customer’s opinions are the best ways to create and increase interaction.

Twitter - a great way to tell customers about your products and services, and see what others are saying about your business.

Foursquare - people can show others where they are by “checking-in,” and/or leaving comments and reviews.

#346111 - 3/12/2 oz.

bAttered ClAm StripS: Sea Watch BEER BATTERED CLAM STRIPS are made from only the finest clams, Atlantic Surf Clams (sea clams). We hand shuck the clams, which allows all the natural juices and sweet flavor to remain in the clam until processing. The Thick-n-Tasty clams are then sliced to a thickness 2 times thicker than a standard clam strip. The strips are coated in a light Narragansett beer (the official beer of the clam) batter with a mild flavor of malt and hops. When prepared according to the directions the Beer Battered Clam Strips will be tender, sweet with a hint of malty beer flavor and leave your customers wanting more. Serve with your favorite sauce to make your very own signature appetizer or clam entree. #309650 - 2/3 lb.

Chopped oCeAn ClAmS: Sea Watch Chopped Ocean Clams are a product made from the Ocean Quahog Clam (Arctica islandica) harvested in US federally regulated waters. The harvest area is called the “Mid-Atlantic Bight” which is roughly a 40,000 square mile area off the coast of Virginia to Massachusetts between 3 miles and 200 miles offshore. The Ocean Clam has long been considered the work horse of the clam chowder world because of its robust flavor. The Ocean Clam is also a terrific low fat and low cholesterol source of protein. #903634 - 12/51 oz.

Kathy Lucas, Vice President of Fairfax Food Service has been in the food business for quite some time, but you’ll never guess how she got into it. During our interview with Kathy, she said, “We danced our way into the food business, liter-ally!” Kathy’s parents had a dance school called In Step, Inc. where they taught ballroom dance. The studio had a kitchen in the back and they started having dinner dances once a month for their clients. One of their clients had a daughter that was getting married and asked if Kathy’s par-ents would let them have the reception there and cater the food. It continued to evolve from there. The first daycare customer that they deliv-ered food to was told by the health department to either bring their kitchen up to current heath code, or they would need to have the food brought in from another approved source. They asked Kathy’s parents if they would provide the food for them. In 1970 they still had the dance school, and were doing dinner dances and wedding receptions, and they began delivering food to daycare centers from that location. Her parents added “Fairfax Circle Banquets” as a subsidiary. They continued doing both dance and food for two years, and then changed the corpo-ration name to Fairfax Food Service & Caterers, Inc. In the early 1980’s, they were catering all types of events, and providing meals to many customers, and decided it was too much. That’s

when they decided to get into contracts. They current-ly have about 105 schools that they work with. Fair-fax Food Service & Caterers prepares the food in the kitchen and then sends it out to the schools and other customers to serve. They also work with daycares and retirement homes. Fairfax Food Service & Caterers offer their cus-tomers a bulk buying program that they cannot obtain on their own because they are not large enough to place their own bulk orders. Fairfax orders the prod-ucts and then passes them on to their customers. Performance Foodservice Roma Carroll County is their main distributor. Kathy loves her sales rep, Greg Smith, because he has really taken the time to learn what they do, and gain an understanding of why they do it. In her mind, Greg is Performance Foodservice because he is the one she works with. Greg knows which items Kathy can use and which items will not work for what they are doing, so he is able to provide her with the items that best suit their specific needs. Fairfax Food Service & Caterers does very little marketing. Most of their business comes from word of mouth passed around by their current custom-ers. The two biggest uphill battles that Kathy strug-gles with are finding good quality products without all the extra additives, and being able to service clients with allergies.

ASSOCIATE SPOTLIGHT

Weldon ClintonCategory Manager

Thirty five years in the business, you would think Weldon would look to slow down. As he would say - “It’s not in the DNA of this Performance Foodservice Roma Carroll County associate.” Starting to work for the Gorsuch Family and Carroll County Foods as a teenager, Weldon worked evenings and weekends. Back then, he was given a lot of duties to perform, whether working in the orchard, selling fruit along the road, or helping to pull product and load trucks at night. Overall it gave him a good handle on what it takes to be successful. “I can’t thank the Gorsuch family enough for all the opportunities to grow within the family busi-ness,” said Weldon. As the family business grew, so did Weldon’s responsibilities. He recalled, “I can remember we didn’t have a lot of space to store inventory and we took inventory all by hand. Weldon would take the inventory and give it to Dwight Gorsuch (President of Carroll County Foods) to order product. I would stand right behind Dwight as he put the order together, I guess one day I got on his nerves and he turned around and said you do it!” Well 35 years later, Weldon is still at it in the Purchasing department. He said, “Purchasing is a no win game, either too much, or not enough, but once you understand how to weed through all of this, it’s great!” For him, the biggest kick is knowing that he puts together a deal that puts the sales force in a very competitive position out on the street for the customers. The bottom line is service for our customers. If we do that successfully, then we will be successful. Weldon is the Category Manager for Seafood, Produce, and Commodities. He has been mar-ried for thirty two years to Anne, who was his high school sweetheart! He has two sons - Brian and Greg, along with two beautiful grandchildren - Mya and Reid. Weldon’s hobbies include spending time with his wife and grandchildren, and spending time around the pool with the whole family! “I can tell you I love the purchasing game, the challenge, the pressure, and just about everything that goes with it! I come to work every day knowing that today I will make a difference to the company. Whether I bring in a new vendor, put a deal in place for the street, or go out with our reps to sell prod-uct, I will make a difference!”
