Market Trends with Tracy
In foodservice, making smart menu decisions can be the difference between open, and closed. 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.
Saval Foodservice is a broadline foodservice distributor located in Elkridge, Maryland, and has been a family-owned & operated business since 1932. We serve the area's independent restaurants, caterers, delis, hotels, and other eateries.

Market Trends with Tracy
Holly Jolly Markets 🎄
The Avian Flu is a major issue worldwide. There were 22 new reports this week affecting about 2 million birds in California and the central U.S. The UN released a report citing Avian Flu in 108 countries, affecting over 500 bird species and 70 species of mammals. Worldwide, 76 people have been diagnosed.
The chicken market is holding steady for the holiday week. Expect wings to go up during the height of football season.
The beef market is taking the expected turn, with middle meats, strips, and ribeyes moving lower and ground, chucks, and grinds moving higher. Buy what you need. The market is shifting.
The pork belly decline was pretty short. It's still a good time to buy, but we will probably see steady increases come 2025. Pork is still a great value.
Dairy markets have seen steady increases, which should continue into the new year.
Have a Merry Christmas! 🎄
