Q&A FEATURE

What sort of training tools/resources do you offer for operators who want to explore specialty cheese offerings?

The foodservice section of Tillamook.com lists awards, downloadable product guides, sell sheets and logo and branding information, as well as articles to help operators tell the Tillamook story, which is proven to directly translate into revenue for their offerings. I get excited about the “Where to Eat” section on our website, which lists operations offering Tillamook products on their menus and grocery stores stocking our products in real time.

We also have a foodservice-specific LinkedIn page with updates on products, new customers, and news. And at our hugely popular visiter center in Tillamook on the Oregon coast, we engage with operators, tell our story, and give them an immersive experience in all things Tillamook. Our foodservice sales team includes a dedicated consumer market insights analyst, consumer TLC specialists, a national distribution manager and national account managers strategically placed throughout the country to support our customers’ needs.
