The Page Group is very proud to announce the signing of a major new national grocery brand license for its client F&S Gourmet Foods, Costa Mesa, CA. Product will commence shipments by first quarter of 2016.

F&S Gourmet foods manufactures refrigerated protein meats, chicken, pork, beef, and turkey products under several brand names inclusive of the F&S Gourmet house brand Sabatino's, and numerous house brands for their retail partners. The company has been in business for the past twelve years largely distributing to the big box stores nationally. The initial growth of the company came thru distribution on QVC where Jimmy Sabatino created an exciting story talking of his Italian heritage and the great experience that food brings every family. The company was founded on the heritage of the Sabatino's family restaurants in Chicago and Newport Beach producing the highest quality protein products using the best ingredients, focused on flavor/taste, and driven by a quality product for a busy family lifestyle. F&S Gourmet is extremely proud of this new partnership, and is excited to bring to the marketplace a nationally recognized brand with the highest quality meat protein products available on the shelf today. Goals are to expand nationally within all grocery channels in a focused and effective way while building a highly effective brand campaign that captures audience thru clear messaging, amazing flavors, and healthier choices for the family center of plate entree.

F&S Gourmet sought new revenue growth, and a National Brand PresenceF&S Gourmet was seeking strategies to expand market reach within their core product categories including meat proteins.

The Page Group developed new strategies for F&S focused on expanding consumer connections thru the licensing of a well recognized national brand associated with the categories F&S Gourmet manufactures and sells into.

Companies in the BBQ, and related markets, were targeted. A license with KC Masterpiece eventually was secured under guidance from The Page Group.
