With 61% of meat and seafood consumers now shopping online,1 the more than 12,000 local butchers and seafood shops in the U.S. have struggled to find e-commerce solutions designed to meet their specific needs. Recognizing this, Promenade Group announced it is expanding its platform to include Promenade for Butchers—an offering specifically built for independent butcher and seafood shops. Promenade for Butchers is a platform that includes a custom search engine-optimized website, online ordering, delivery options, marketing, back-office management, and online and in-store sales that enables butcher and seafood shops to expand their ordering and delivery services and reach new and existing customers online.
"Leveraging over a decade of expertise in the florist, restaurant, and beverage markets, Promenade has developed an efficient way to bring the personal in-store meat shopping experience online," said Farbod Shoraka, CEO and co-founder, Promenade. "We are excited to provide local butchers with a comprehensive platform that allows them to reach new and existing customers, and are looking forward to continuing Promenade's rapid expansion of services to small shops in other vertical markets nationwide."
Providing everything from traditional cuts of beef and chicken to specialty offerings of buffalo and venison, butchers acquire and retain loyal customers by delivering outstanding products and services—from order to table. Promenade for Butchers deepens the independent store owner's relationship with new and existing customers by offering an easy ordering and delivery experience. Each website is customized to fit the shop's brand and provides a simple and safe online shopping experience with a variety of delivery options, including in-store pick up and same-day delivery.
