Cheese prices at the Depots by me are always much higher than US Foods or Sysco on cheese especially. I only go if I’m in a pinch. Wing prices are better though as well as some other items.Anyone price cheese at Restaurant Depot?
I use Sorrento 50/50. It’s slightly cheaper at Restaurant Depot, but it’s not enough that it’s worth having to transport it myself right now.Anyone price cheese at Restaurant Depot?
We go through like 50 cases a week between both shops. But I’m in a franchise with prices already locked in. I bet we go through 750 cases a week system wideI use the same as you Jokergerm. My price is 1.78 for blocks. I order 30 cases a week…you would think I could get a better price but that’s the best I can get.
Yes, we saved a fair bit signing up for that I thought more like 6% but we saved a lot switching suppliers a few years back as wellAre you registered for the CDC rebate for mozza? It saves me about 10%.
That kind of cost would sink me! We did a blind taste test with a bunch of customers and employees and while several people preferred the Grande it was not half of them in a test with three cheeses and all three got votes. For me, I would have to see a clear preference to think about paying an up-charge like that! Even at the 50-75 cents per pound premium that the prices mentioned above amount to the cost would be over $15,000 per year… and despite the familiarity all of us have with the name, I am certain that 99% of my customers have never heard of it so marketing the name would be no help.Last year I was buying Grande from a dist. for 3.25 - 3.50 a lb. It was killing me and honestly grande is not THAT great.
