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.

Market Trends with Tracy
Summer Slide ☀️🛝
BEEF: The market’s still sliding, but not as fast as you'd think with production this tight. Ribeyes and tenderloins? We may have already hit the year's low – so is an expensive holiday season inevitable? Thin meats are dropping, grinds dipped too, but this market’s playing a long game.
POULTRY: Chicken production is holding strong – wings are steady, breasts are ticking up, and tenders dipped a bit. Demand isn’t going anywhere, but will prices stay calm? Plus, we’re a month Avian flu-free – can we keep the streak alive?
GRAINS: Strong crops, weak exports, and tariff concerns are pushing corn, soy, and wheat lower. Prices are slipping – but is this a true bargain, or just the calm before another shakeup?
PORK: The pork market’s moving lower – and even bellies are along for the ride. Is this a one-week blip or the start of an early slide? We’ll need another week to see where this goes.
DAIRY: After weeks of slipping, butter’s starting to climb again – but is it just a pause or a new trend? This week’s calm might be the quiet before the next churn.
