Should Your Restaurant Buy Organic This Season?

Posted on by

As a restaurant owner, you know how important it is to prepare for the busy season ahead! Between catering parties and changing up your menu, you are sure to be busy. However busy you may be, it is never too busy to make sure the quality of your food is nothing less than perfect. Has your business considered buying organic?

Buying organic ingredients for your kitchen is an easy way to perfect your best dishes. Here are a few reasons to go organic:

-Organic meat is healthier and fresher. The animals are raised in an organic and humane environment, which makes the meat much better for you!

-Shows customers that you care. By investing more money into organic products, you are showing your customers that you care about the quality of your ingredients.

-You protect the environment. The more people support organic products, the larger step w

e take towards saving our environment. The less chemicals the better!

-Support your locals. Restaurant owners can decide to buy fresh meat, eggs and other ingredients from a local farmer. This is a great way to team up with your community!

-Increase your profit. Sure, the products may be more expensive, but you will make up for your extra costs when it comes to sales. Americans are beginning to choose organic restaurants over chain restaurants.

With the holidays right around the corner, there is no better time to go organic! Your customers deserve the quality meal that they pay for. Going organic is a great way to show them that you are serving grade-A dishes.

In order to protect your fresh products, it may be a good idea to look into our restaurant liability insurance. Here at Dagley Insurance and Financial Services, we believe that the best restaurants deserve the best coverage. With this specialized policy, you will be covered from: general liability, kitchen equipment, food spoilage, liquor liability, workers compensation and much more.  Coverage during such a busy time is crucial; the last thing you need is an issue during the holidays!

San Antonio police report that more robberies in the area are occurring at local businesses. The perpetrators, two masked robbers were dressed up like teenage mutant ninja turtles according to witnesses. Police reported their latest attach was this morning at 2:30am at the Valero corner store in the 10400 block of I-35 North.

Using guns they managed to get away with a few hundred dollars and some cigarettes, but area police believe these are the same masked robbers that have been hitting businesses in the area for the past few weeks.

A security camera caught the crime taking pl

ace, which police hope will lead them to some evidence in the case. If you are a small business in this area having Texas commercial insurance should be a priority. You do not want damage done to you store that could leave you with hefty repair costs.

You can watch the KENS5 video from the last robbery here. Anyone with any information should contact the San Antonio Police Department at 210-207-7484.
