As It Celebrates 25 Years Of Serving Up Wholesome Quality Meals Fast…BOSTON MARKET SELECTS WEST PALM BEACH REGION From Vero Beach/Stuart To Boca Raton AS PILOT MARKET FOR ROLLOUT OF NEW NATIONAL BRAND REPOSITIONING INITIATIVE
West Palm Beach, FL (May 12, 2010)--Designed to own what it terms the “Meals for the Kitchen Table” position in the industry, a new Boston Market is being served up during a pilot program at 10 of its restaurant locations in the West Palm Beach, Florida region — from Vero Beach/Stuart to Boca Raton — for the rollout of a new national brand repositioning initiative.
“On our 25th anniversary we’re renewing our commitment to serve the best Rotisserie Chicken and proud to introduce the new Boston Market®, designed for the generations of guests we are honored to serve,” noted Boston Market Chief Executive Officer, F. Lane Cardwell, Jr. who is considered an industry expert on home meal replacement. “Guests will love our line-up of delicious new foods, dining with real plates and stainlessware, and new level of hospitality, all of which make for a noticeably different dining experience. We are pleased to give our guests in the West Palm Beach area the ‘first taste’ of what’s to come nationally” noting that the area was chosen for its market size, demographic diversity, and operations support.
He added that Boston Market, long known for fresh comfort food that tastes great, has had a respected place on the kitchen tables of homes around the country for two generations. “For those not able to make it home to serve and enjoy our food, we have offered the use of our own kitchen table. We have always represented slow cooking, enjoyed by our guests during the fast times in their lives. We offer comfort in uncomfortable times, and work hard and sweat the details so that our guests can enjoy each other, as well as our food."
So what will guests experience in the West Palm Beach pilot?
“Over the years our guests have grown up, evolving from Crock Pots to rice cookers, from toaster ovens to convection ovens, adding spices, oils, seasonings, and exotic ingredients to their lives, with their kitchens now including colorful or shiny pots and pans a chef would envy, and pieces of cooking equipment and a fancy knife set that wait to be used,” continued Cardwell, a restaurant industry veteran with 30 years of executive, marketing and strategic development experience. “We listened and observed, and thus created a more relevant new Boston Market, designed for time-crunched working people, and anyone who needs a welcoming wholesome, home-style ‘kitchen table’ dining experience.”
According to Boston Market Vice President of Innovation and Executive Chef Richard F. Davis — who leads the Boston Market culinary innovation team for restaurant and grocery businesses — guests in the pilot market will find flavorful, visual and experiential enhancements, including:
• A New Level Of Hospitality:
o Increased Staff – To ensure an extra measure of attention and care for its guests, Boston Market has significantly increased its staff in the West Palm Beach area. More than 70 newly hired team members include those to staff new positions for guest engagement and heart-of-the-house service flow maintenance, as well as those to work traditional positions at many levels of culinary and guest interaction. Each took part in a new training program for both hospitality and food preparation, focused on learning the many new foods, as well as improving upon the current preparation and presentation. The goal of all is to take the “hospitality” feel of guest care to a new, unmistakably higher level.
o Dining Room Ambassadors - The new Boston Market calls its service staff Dining Room Ambassadors because Boston Market wants the service experience to be so unique and exceptional that guests will have the desire to return and encourage their friends and family join them at the new Boston Market’s kitchen table. During peak times, these hospitality ambassadors may greet, assist guests to their tables with trays, deliver food being prepared to order, refill drinks or bus tables, among other interactions.
o New Uniforms - Amplifying the message of delicious food, the New Boston Market culinarians are dressed in Chef Whites. Other staff wear new uniform shirts and bib aprons for a crisp and clean look.
o Chef’s Hot Case - One of the most visible changes in the appearance of the restaurant is the chef’s hot case. Beautiful chefware is now presenting New Boston Market foods. These colorful enameled stainless steel pots hold temperature very well and their small size guarantees that the food will be freshly made. The stainless steel inset panels reflect light and showcase the food. What was the “hot case” is now the “show case.” And what a show it is!
o Plateware – Showcased brilliantly in the Chef’s case, Boston Market’s new foods are now served on real plates and with real knives, forks and spoons. Having made the commitment to elevate both food and hospitality, Boston Market felt the upgrade was essential.
o Hand-carved-to-order Rotisserie chicken and turkey –Always carved-to-order in the past, they are now visible to the guest to highlight Boston Market’s unique point of difference.
o Hand-tossed-to-order fresh entrée salads – No longer, grab-and-go, but tossed fresh to order throughout the day.
• A New Fresh Spin
o On Chicken, with 20% reduction in sodium being tested in West Palm Beach pilot market to take lead in supporting efforts underway by Harvard Board of Medicine and New York Board of Health.
o On Turkey, which is now Rotisserie roasted instead of oven baked at the New Boston Market
o Poultry gravy, now prepared with a 50% reduction in sodium
• More Variety - To encourage frequent guest visits (even within the same week), the new Boston Market has added more options that balance its traditional more indulgent home-style favorites with entrées and sides that are flavorful while less in calories, sodium, and fats.
• New Menu Items - The line-up features 18 new foods, including additional healthful choices, such as Garlicky Lemon Savoy Spinach, Mediterranean Green Beans and Market Succotash with Edamame that will debut in West Palm Beach market.
