The content seemed well prepared and flowed well. I loved all of the anecdotal stories, and how each segment had an interactive component. It was a great opportunity to create alignment and priorities with my team. I would love to send at least two people per year to build their knowledge and recognize merit.

DeliOps is good information for those of us looking to drive sales in a very competitive grocery environment. The presenters spoke with full knowledge of the challenges and opportunities for growth. I was at DeliOps 5 years ago and liked this as a refresher course.

DeliOps gives you the tools you need to grow and build an effective production kitchen. This is a wonderful thing you’re teaching people and the systems are amazing. I don’t know how we ever ran our kitchen without them.
Deziree Ferrin, Kitchen Manager
BriarPatch Food Co-op, Grass Valley, CA
I attended DeliOps a year ago and came back with tools, plans and valuable ideas for restructuring into a positive, well-balanced and successful operation. Since then we’ve made many changes and improvements which have grown our sales 20 percent and improved margin by 10 points.
Noah Argeanas, Deli Team Leader
La Montañita Food Co-op, Albuquerque, NM
DeliOps is incredible -- the Master's Class on prepared foods systems, the state of the industry and real world practices. The content was invaluable and speaks to staff on the whole spectrum of experience, from a new supervisor to a veteran general manager. I've run prepared foods departments in large co-ops as well as Fortune 50 companies for 22 years. The ROI on this training will be paid back in months, not years.

La Montañita Food Co-op, Albuquerque, NM
