Nuts
Varieties
Sales Strategies
Make nuts a part of football tailgate promotions as they are a popular snacking item. Include nuts in holiday promotions as they are an important part of many holiday recipes. Promote nuts as a healthy and portable summertime snack that can add a quick burst of energy. Cross-merchandise nuts with baking items, stir-fry vegetables, ice cream and yogurt.
Dynamic Displays
Display packaged nuts in bulk bins in the center of an aisle. This draws attention to a product that can get lost in a larger display of fruits and vegetables.

Odar-sensitive (Do not store or transport odar-sensitive items with commodities that produce odors. Nuts will absorb odors produced by onions.)
Nuts must be kept in ammonia-free refrigeration. Prevent moisture absorption by keeping cases off the floor and away from brick or concrete walls, which have a tendency to retain moisture.
