Glory Foods New Smoked Sausage Products Have Southern Twist

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Representatives of Glory Foods and Monogram Foods announced today the companies have introduced new meat products, Glory Foods Cocktail Links and Glory Foods Smoked Sausage, both of which are flavored Southern-style. Monogram Food Solutions, a leading manufacturer of packaged meats based in Memphis, Tenn., is producing and marketing these products on behalf of Glory Foods.

"We, at Glory Foods, believe that now is the opportune time to present our sausage products to the market because consumer interest in Southern foods continues to grow," said Dan Charna, vice president of operations for Glory Foods. "With the expertise of Monogram Food Solutions, Glory Foods introduces sausage with special Southern seasonings that complement our canned and bagged vegetables. Consumers can now "link" to another side of our flavorful personality."

Glory Foods Cocktail Links are made with special seasonings to produce robust flavor offered in two varieties: Original and Spicy Red Hot, both precooked and sold in 14-ounce packages. The Glory Foods Smoked Sausage also comes in two hearty tastes: Hot Smoked and Original Smoked. Each comes in 16 and 28-ounce links. The sausage products have been exhaustively tested to deliver a true Southern taste experience.

"These new Glory Foods smoked sausage products taste great and are different from anything else we see in the market," said Marty Butler, vice president of business development at Monogram Food Solutions. "We think these latest food items will bring new consumers to Glory Food and generate incremental sales for grocers."
