Advanced Retail Technology for Real-Time Strategic Insights

The success of any business is dependent on making informed decisions. This is especially true for fresh food manufacturers who need to constantly monitor trends and changes in the marketplace and must also account for a complex supply chain and perishable products.

Retail technology tools can provide fresh food manufacturers with the data and insights they need to make more informed decisions about their business. It can also help you track store distribution trends, identify key performance indicators, find areas of opportunity, and ultimately provide more consistent products on the store shelf.

Here at Epic Sales Partners, our advanced retail technology is paired with best-in-class retail specialists who are category experts with an average tenure of over seven years.

Epic: The Fresh Food Catalysts

Since 2015, Maher Marketing, Premier Sales Solutions, Frontier Food Brokerage, and MPF Sales and Marketing have worked collectively but operated with individual, distinct identities. Each brokerage has a unique and proud history, with our respective experience, insights, confidence, and access spanning more than 35 years.

We recognized, however, that we can do more for our manufacturers, our retailers, our associates, and our communities if we operate collaboratively with a common brand and identity.

The newly formed Epic Sales Partners is the largest national independent fresh food sales agency creating deep relationships with food retailers locally and nationally. We serve as the bridge connecting grocery retailers with fresh food manufacturers in the bakery, deli, meat, seafood, produce, dairy, and frozen departments, as well as in the natural, specialty, and organic departments.

Our Fresh Specialization

Grocery retailers across the country are responding to consumer demand for fresh selections, however, there are few national fresh-focused sales agencies that can expertly connect retailers and fresh food suppliers.

Epic Sales Partners has extensive fresh experience and deep relationships with food manufacturers and retailers built over decades. Born from four iconic grocery agencies — Maher Marketing, Premier Sales Solutions, Frontier Food Brokerage, and MPF Sales and Marketing — we lead sales to multiple food industry channels.
