McCain Foods is exhibiting two latest additions to their premium Signatures product range at the Casual Dining Show at the Business Design Centre in London, February 26-27.

The new Gastro Thick Cut Chip and Skin-on Fry have been developed specifically for the casual dining sector. Visitors at McCain’s stand (G1) will have the opportunity to taste these products, to see them being cooked and served seasoned in unique ways. 

The McCain Signatures Gastro Thick Cut Chip and the Skin-on Fry have been developed following extensive consumer and operator research to identify the key requirements for chips and fries served within the casual dining sector. Together they are the perfect pair for operators who demand convenient, high quality solutions to meet increasing consumer demand for a casual dining style experience.

Designed to help operators expand their premium chip menu offers, Gastro Thick Cut and Skin-on Fry offer a number of unique features to complement a wide range of mains, at the same time as increased operational efficiency and profit opportunities.

Rebecca Rowlands, McCain Foods’ Profit Sector Product Manager, said: “Our research shows that consumers place a huge emphasis on the quality and choice of chips they are served when eating out of home in casual dining environments.

Differentiated chip options that are unique to the operator, either through cut size, toppings or seasonings, are also popular within casual dining outlets.

“The launch of McCain Signatures Gastro Thick Cut Chips and Skin-on Fry means that we can make it easier for operators to meet the specific requirements of the casual dining consumers. Our two new premium products are intended to help operators deliver menu stand out, whilst helping to increase operator profits, as a result of customer satisfaction and by delivering operational efficiencies.”
