Marcus Smith of our Butchers & Meat cutters Face book group says his market go screwed bad. A Company ordered 400 rib eyes and 400 pork steaks. Only picked up 75 of each. Now they are trying to break even. Notice the 6.99 price. They get theirs for about 6.49 lb and they are all choice. With all the labor they have already lost their butts though. He said, looks like his manager won't be getting a bonus this year
That is a tough break. Can you push rib roast for the holidays? Hopefully you will be able to get more customers into your store with this deal and buy higher margin items. Maybe suggest a rub for the steaks and roast. And the more new customers like tour store, it might help out your sales in the long run. Good luck you can turn this into a positive!
