BALFOURS PROMOTIONS
All Balfours Premium Pie Range and Donuts are on SPECIAL until the 31st Oct , details are on the promotion page but WE EXPECT ALL STORES TO SUPPORT THESE PROMOTIONS as they will generate sales and profit
Please take note that Croissants are also on promotion
PRICE RISES
Balfours will have a small price rise during October and all stores will be advised by mail and we will put this up on the website as soon as we are given the new pricing .
Vilis will also undergo a price rise effective 30th Sept
WINDOWS
When was the last time you looked at your windows ????
- • Decals that are old and peeling should come off.
- • Adverts that are old , should come off
Clean windows look far better so that customers can see into your store
LION MILK TERMS
Lion representatives are progressively coming to all stores to explain the new milk terms that they are offering based not on volume but on facings.
- They will need your time to explain the terms which cannot be done quickly
- They will demonstrate the savings that can be made.
Any concerns please contact us.
THE DISTRIBUTORS
The Distributors are the preferred suppliers for confectionary for the group and they do have an extensive range of groceries.
Their pricing and service are excellent, and that is before the discount as part of the group
If you have not seen a rep from them or need to place an order ring them on 83412111
The Distributors have their own page on the website to highlight their extensive range of promotions and products.
PRICING OF PIES / PASTYS
Pricing of pastry products from bakeries is varied across all stores but it is all about making the correct profit from lines across the range and suppliers.
You cannot sell all pies and pasties for the same price , while it maybe easier for your staff it is costing you profit
One system that is used by a lot of stores is to double the cost price and minus 30c and add on GST
Please see below for an example:
Product :Balfours Pie
Cost Price x 2 :$3.88 - $1.94
Minus 30c :$3.58
Plus GST:$3.95
Suggested Sell: $3.95
Product: Opposition Pie
Cost Price x 2 :$5.20 - $2.60
Minus 30c :$4.90
Plus GST :$5.40
Suggested Sell: $5.40
