Catalog & Internet Marketing for Specialty Food Companies 5th Food Group works exclusively with the management of specialty food companies who want to grow their mail order, catalog and internet business.
Whether you want your growth slow & measured or rapid & expansive, we can develop a marketing plan that meets your needs. We custom build your mail order marketing plan from scratch around the sales level and profit you want. And we’ll implement that plan, making sure everything happens on time and in budget. A lot of consultants tell you “We’ll be part of your management team.” I’m sure there are many that make good on that promise, but over and over I hear the opposite: “consultants tell me what I should do, but don’t help me do it.” As an entrepreneur you probably don’t need more advice. Your managers, your staff, even your dishwashers have advice. What you need is someone who gets things done. We create and implement your marketing program, making sure things get done on time and within budget.

Honey Baked Ham
In 1957, when Harry J. Hoenselaar opened the first HoneyBaked Ham store in Detroit, Michigan, like most great companies, he did so because he believed in an idea. An idea that produced what is regarded today as the best tasting ham in the world.
Using the highest quality bone-in smoked ham, Harry created a special curing and cooking procedure, bringing out a one-of-a-kind taste that can only be described as perfection. Along with the unmistakable Honey Baked Ham®, that guarantee of satisfaction has grown to include homemade side dishes, classic roasted turkeys, and save-room-for worthy desserts that meet our strict standards.

Jody's Popcorn is one of our newest customers!! Here's a little about them.
Love for popcorn goes back to my college years. In fact, Alan, hid my engagement ring in a box of caramel popcorn! Our new home, the resort City of Virginia Beach, was missing fresh caramel corn. We were determined to fill that void with popcorn more delicious than anything we had ever tasted. We began development of the recipe in our kitchen, where Alan tweaked batch after batch. Our motto was “Amazing or Bust.” After 53 tries, we arrived at “Amazing”- Recipe 53 Caramel Corn! Today our flagship store on the Virginia Beach Oceanfront is an icon for vacationers and a staple for locals. And, as we share our popcorn nationwide, we still put it through the same rigorous trials. To achieve our indulgent flavors, we pop our corn daily, use only the finest ingredients and never use preservatives. We hope you love the popcorn as much as we enjoy making it!About Jody's Popcorn
