Follow along each week as we try to make sense of the many links in our food service supply chain, and how that affects the food you serve. Saval Foodservice's own veteran purchaser, Tracy Anderson, takes you through the major market updates.

Market Trends with Tracy
Avian Flu Hits the Tropics
One week until Thanksgiving! 🦃
Chicken pricing is steady, as it's not the featured protein this time of year. Production remains steady as well. There is grizzly news on the Avian Flu front. Hawaii has reported its first case along with 16 other new reports this week, all on the West Coast.
Beef production is down this week and the price pattern remains the same. Middle meats continue to move higher, while rounds, chucks, and grinds are lower. This should continue through January.
Pork bellies are down $2 this week and we should have more to go. Production is good and product is readily available. Loins are a particularly good value.
