North Shore Living Herbs + Greens charts success
While COVID continues to change the landscape of consumer behavior, including holiday traditions and family gatherings, data suggests the herb category is surging in sales during this season.
North Shore Culinary Grade Potted is the #1 brand in America, selling 34% more than the second-ranked brand according to our latest Nielsen Data (52 weeks ending 10/31/2020). The #1 item is Potted Basil, taking the nation’s lead with a growth rate at 39%.
“The whole North Shore team is proud of the products we produce and that pride shows through in produce departments.” Said Tyler Clear, Sales Manager at North Shore. “Home cooks can taste the difference as we continually push traditional herb category norms of freshness and flavor. We are honored to be leaders in the industry and will continue innovating to make every home cooked meal a special occasion.”
North Shore had their best year yet this Thanksgiving and is going strong through the Holiday Season.
They are expecting these trends will continue through 2021 and are prepared to cater to a high demand of product.
“Consumers are more aware of their health and actively prioritizing it,” said Julie Buehler, Business Development Manager at North Shore. “That is causing a shift in key drivers of purchase decisions for many categories, including herbs. Considering that, more cooking from home and the holidays, it’s an exciting time to be growing Living herbs!”
