As the largest supplier of Corporate Brand Soups with more than 70 soups SKUs, plus the quality top five gravy varieties, Bay Valley Foods is a strong liquid asset for all your soup, broth and gravy needs.

Quality

The benefits of our high standard for quality are many:

• Increased Corporate Brand Image

• Increase Consumer Loyalty

• Increased Profit

An Unmatched Commitment to Product Quality

Our unparalleled commitment to product quality is carried across our complete product line, giving Bay Valley Foods the broadest scope of brand-matching products in the industry.

With a variety of ongoing quality testing at the core of our commitment to you, Bay Valley Foods ensures the quality of every product with your name on it. We take the guesswork out of the equation.

Using a third-party independent consumer-testing agency results in better product development and evaluation by taking individual biases out of critical decisions.

Our process includes standard "checkpoints" along the route of product development where we evaluate recipe development, ingredients and taste in comparison to National Brands. If, at any time, a product fails to meet our criteria for quality, we go back for further development until it passes. The end result: A complete product line of Corporate Brand products that meets or exceeds parity with National Brands. In addition to top-quality products, Bay Valley Foods offers a variety of Category Management and Label Development Support services.

Soup

The soup category accounts for over $3 billion in annual sales volume in the US and Bay Valley Foods is the leader in Private Label sales. Our wide variety of flavors match brand competitors such as Campbell's Homestyle and Chunky, and Progresso Homestyle, providing stores and consumers a more cost effective, equally delicious option for bringing soup to the table. Adding to our success is the popularity of our condensed offerings of top variety kids themes, family sizes, kosher products and the EZO can. We also offer brand matches to four varieties of Healthy RTS formulations plus three varieties of 25% reduced sodium condensed items. Bay Valley Foods brings innovation to the table as well with a line of Whole Grain soups and Premium RTS homestyle soups that will differentiate your private label soup category.

Broth

A good broth is the base of a good meal. And with Bay Valley broths, your customers can be assured of many delicious dishes. Our broths come in 14.5 oz and 49.5 oz cans, as well as 32 oz aseptic containers. Broths are available in chicken and beef ranging from value quality to first label premium selection. In addition, we offer low sodium and fat free varieties for the more health conscious consumer.

Corporate Brand Gravy is driving the growth of the liquid gravy category. And as the provider of the most popular gravy flavors we're fueling that growth. Beef, chicken and turkey, with the addition of mushroom, are also available in cans.
