Long John Silver's Makes Its Tartar Sauce Available for a Limited Time
References: investorshangout
Long John Silver's®, "an iconic American seafood restaurant brand," is making "one of its most requested menu items" — Long John Silver's Tartar Sauce — available at select Kroger Family of Stores locations. This move is timed to coincide with Lent observations, and the condiment will be available for a limited time, which may create a sense of urgency for consumers.
The availability of Long John Silver's Tartar Sauce in bottles on retail shelves marks the inaugural expansion of the brand’s intellectual property into packaged grocery channels. Christopher Caudill, the Senior Vice President of Supply Chain and Commercial Strategy at Long John Silver's, shared: "Bringing our tartar sauce to retail for the first time is an exciting step for Long John Silver's. "It allows us to reach guests beyond our restaurants, giving them a chance to enjoy a little piece of the Long John Silver's experience wherever they're eating."
