Thought maybe with covid they get square and eliminate cash handling and that awful register. Be easy to track accounting too, since you get free invoices on all daily transactions. Debit card they only charge 10 cents a transaction and no equipment rentals. Just need an internet connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catinental couch Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 It is quite obvious that some people have all the answers but are not in the retail sector to have first hand experience. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just before covid was my last time. Cash register was still there too and last winter we could go inside. Never seem to be able to make fridays, when it is on. Maybe next month 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strong Farmer Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 How are wing nights going? Hopefully turn out is good for last year 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Wing nights have been around 200 orders. Down from our "normal" wing nights by about 25% but much better than last year. It was a bit of a challenge getting wings though (had to go to 2 different suppliers to get enough) and I think the wings were just a bit smaller than what we are used to seeing. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a certain OC Member has chicken 🐔 wing contacts?. 🤔 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah been a wing shortage more Canada’s are buying them and cooking at home. Chicken live price has been rising because of feed cost and now processors been pushing back hard on size of the bird. My target is 2.1 to 2.4 kg’s. Give them a 2.45 and you never hear end of it 😂. We use to have an incentive for size of 4 cents a kg for proper size. Now they just bulley yeah into giving them proper size. I think they forget it is a live product and breeder age of chicks very greatly for us too, which affects size. But no point trying to slow them down if they are growing to fast, because that costs money and time and no incentive now. Fun times. Time for a new contract since my current company is a huge headache for me 😂. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All going to pubs and restaurants for a premium no doubt. Brazil usually ships in lots of wings into our market too, but I think covid thrown a wrench into shipments it seems. St clements has always sourced its chicken wings from a local business in town too, they usually carry large brazil Wings too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe in Ontario if you find a single feather in a container of ready to cook chicken, you are not supposed to use any of the chicken in the package no matter what size the package is. Note sure if all kitchens give a cluck though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldfinger Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Brazilian wings true story , I met a pub owner from Southampton who also imported 30 to 40 k lbs. of JUMBO wings monthly . All sold before they landed min order 500 lbs. . l couldn't see myself jamming that amount in the family freezer . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
