promotion material to more than
1,500 stores throughout the state.
This year an ethnic flavor pro
motes Chinese, Italian, and Mex
ican dishes “Made Easy With
Beef.”

to try new and different ways to
prepare beef. “The emphasis is on
variety and convenience,” said
Leon Acrich, beef and veal retail
coordinator for the Pennsylvania
Beef Cpuncil.
Information Resources, Inc., a
independent research firm, con
cluded in a recent survey that
point-of-purchase materials were
effective in generating, on aver
age, a three to five percent in
crease in fresh beef sales. “Con
sidering the volume of beef sold in
the supermarket, a five percent
gain in beef sales can make a sig
nificant impact on overall prof
itability in the store,” said Acrich.
