Restaurant Re-emergence in Phase 2 of BC’s Restart Plan

Dear Valued Customers,

With restaurants, cafes, and pubs included in Phase 2 of BC’s Restart Plan, we imagine that you are in the process of getting prepared for customers, staff, and a slow ramp up of your business to return to the worlds’ new “normal.” As more restaurants determine their plan to reopen their dining rooms, there are a few things to consider when thinking about your menu: the dishes you’ll offer, the ways diners will buy from you, and the cost of the dishes. Now is a great time to start working with your Intercity Packers Sales Reps on your offerings and to understand which items may have the biggest impact on your bottom line and their availability.

Ever since Dr. Bonnie Henry ordered restaurants to halt dine-in service two months ago, our Purchasing department has drastically scaled back the amount of meat and seafood products we supply that are exclusively used by our food service clients. However, we are eager to work with your team to supply these products more regularly again. In fact, our entire global and local supply chain is eager to support restaurant-focused products with their steady re-emergence. With your help, we should be able to mitigate any short orders, but there may be some fluctuation in what is available over the next few weeks, so we really do appreciate your understanding and patience as we manage through these fast-changing conditions.

In addition, the temporary changes to our order schedule that became effective Monday, April 6, 2020, are still in place for the time being. Please refer to our revised order schedule below.
