FoodieFinds…Fortnightly Digital Fuel for Jamaican Foodies.

Ingrid Riley, May 26, 2020August 29, 2020

The pandemic hit us just over two months ago and the world has gone digital even more now. So has your choices on where to get your food.

Now you can get that info plus great deals in a single place.

This idea came to us just based on what we were personally experiencing – staying safely at home but needing to get groceries, our fruits, and veggies, just everything we need to stay fed and healthy. Added to that, many, many brands in the Jamaican food and beverage industry pivoted to offer pickup, curbside, and delivery; new menu options, new products, services plus deals galore.

There is a fresh and fevered race to both maintain a customer base alongside the new players in the market who are offering something different and want a piece of that foodie dollar.

Many are spending on Facebook and Instagram ads, turning to influencers and blogs to raise their visibility and drive sales. There is a clear spirit of experimentation, a drive to survive, and a desire to thrive during this time.

The Food and Beverage Inudstry is changing fast to meet the changed consumer behaviour.

FoodieFinds is here to help you keep track of all the deliciousness going on-so you can try new things, snag some great deals while staying loyal to your favourite and familiar brands.

So here goes!

Foodie Finds is a fortnightly email newsletter for foodies who want to be the first to know and get great deals for:

Groceries 

Artisanal goodies  

Healthy stuff

Supplements & spices

Sweets tooth satisfaction

and so much more.

FoodieFinds Newsletter #1 Goes Out for Jamaica on Monday, June 1, 2020.
