Thanks to Plate Magazine and the seven sponsors that hosted the first annual Free & Easy Party during NACUFS.   It was a well run, well attended (80 operators) event and a terrific way to bring Foodservice Rewards alive in the college market.  The placecard shown provides more detail.  Basic American has already agreed to sponsor the Free & Easy party again next year in Boston. 

Foodservice Rewards team members Marty, Lisa, Paul, Ron, and Ashleigh were decked out in yellow.  We gave away thousands of points and the photo booth was a big hit!

NACUFS and SNA Recap

A quick update on the NACUFS and SNA/ANC shows…

Here’s a quick update on the NACUFS and SNA/ANC shows. Sorry so brief, but I am busy playing catch up and getting ready for ACF that starts on Sunday.

SNA Tradeshow:

Thanks to Aaron for helping staff the Spin to Win at Rich’s booth. We had long, continuous, lines for the first 2 days. We had to ship the prize wheel to NACUFS before day 3 at SNA, but Aaron had traffic on day 3 even without the wheel. Rumor has it that the SNA conference had record breaking attendance. The majority of this segment is aware of the program, and we picked up some additional leads for new enrollments.

NACUFS Tradeshow:

Thanks to Ashleigh and Ron for helping staff the Spin to Win at Rich’s, Bunge and Perdue. We were busy at all booths on both days. They were excited to spin to win and shared with us how much they appreciate the program.

We were able to get both K-12 and NACUFS operators to do video testimonials. Lots of very positive feedback from operators. They “LOVE Foodservice Rewards” – see video for proof!!

More Operators Using Points for Shows

We heard so many operators mention that FSR paid their way to NACUFS and SNA/ANC that I asked Tyler pull the numbers…

We heard so many operators mention that FSR paid their way to NACUFS and SNA/ANC that I asked Tyler pull the numbers. This is a HUGE increase over last year when I think we had 2 redemptions in total. I guess the eNews and Story Tool are helping to get the word out :-)

SNA – 159
NACUFS – 55
ACF – 15
AHF – 1

NACUFS Regional Show Participation

I had an opportunity at the MW Regional NACUFS Conference to speak with many operators who all had great things to say about FSR…

I attended the Regional NACUFS conference and showcase this week. Nine of our sponsor were there including: Schwan’s, Bunge, Rich’s, Kraft, Nestle, King & Price, Unilever, Advance Pierre and Perdue, all proudly their displaying Foodservice Rewards signage.

I had an opportunity to speak with many operators who all had great things to say about FSR. It was fun to hear about how they are using their points and how much they appreciate the program. Each operator I spoke with was very engaged in the program.

We partnered with Perdue Farms and I helped staff their showcase exhibit and distributed Peel and Reveal bonus points cards.

I also distributed Save the Date cards for the Free & Easy Party at the National Show and operators seemed very interested in attending.

Finally, I will be attending the Continental Conference next week and will be working with Perdue again.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Say “Cheese” for Foodservice Rewards!

“Codee” gets lots of smiles at AHF, NACUFS and SNA



Foodservice Rewards has been working hard to ramp up the exposure at shows like NRA, AHF, NACUFS and SNA to keep operators engaged and create additional excitement and new program enrollments.  Codee (the FSR mascot) spent time at sponsor exhibits offering bonus points to Foodservice Rewards members who took their picture with her.  This drove significant traffic to the exhibits and resulted in lots of smiles.
