Starting this month, Dickey’s
Barbecue Pit signature smoked sausages are available in Kroger locations

hometown.
“Our goal is
to make Dickey’s Barbecue Pit a national brand in the marketplace,” says Dean
Sanders, Executive Vice President Sales and Marketing at Eddy Packing Co. “We
are excited to work with Dickey’s Barbecue Pit on this venture and look forward
to the opportunity of expansion.”
Dickey’s
Barbecue Pit’s line of sausage has seen success in its previous retail launch
at Walmart and Dickey’s looks forward to the partnership with Kroger to bring
their delicious, high-quality sausage to 105 Kroger locations throughout the Dallas-Fort
Worth Metroplex.
All of
Dickey’s sausages are gluten free and contain no MSG, nitrates or nitrites.
They also come naturally hardwood smoked, making them easy to prepare at home.
“We are
proud to launch Dickey’s signature smoked polish, red hot links and jalapeno
cheddar sausage in Kroger locations throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth
Metroplex,” says Tamala Fowler, Senior Vice President of Retail Sales and
International Development at Dickey’s Capital Group. “Dickey’s guests can now
have the same delicious sausage when they are cooking at home as they have when
they visit their local Dickey’s location.”
During the
launch of Dickey’s Barbecue Pit’s sausage in Kroger, guests can find Dickey’s
sausage in stand-alone displays in each of the 105 Kroger stores.
