Avara launches new year-round turkey range

Avara Foods is launching a range of turkey products under the brand name The Turkey Kitchen designed to help make turkey a year-round option for shoppers. The range will launch in Sainsbury’s, Asda and Morrisons and is aimed at younger shoppers who want different sources of protein to support a healthy lifestyle. 

Drawing inspiration from around the world, The Turkey Kitchen range will include three brand new products: Thai Style Cakes, Turkey Katsu and Cajun Turkey Strips. What’s more, the addition of specially paired serving sauces makes for flavoursome turkey products that differentiate themselves from those currently in the category.    

Intended to be cooked and served alongside other meal components, the three new products are produced using the finest British farmed turkey and designed to hit the mark for consumers looking to reduce their red meat intake.  

Commenting on the new launch Chris Hall, chief commercial officer at Avara Foods said: “The Turkey Kitchen brand has been created based on shopper and category insights to give consumers a chance to change their perceptions about turkey by giving them a clear reason why they should buy into the category. The Turkey Kitchen’s unique point of difference is intended to bring life to a fixture in need of year-round appeal.”  

Hall continued: “We know what shoppers are looking for, and our new range will hit the mark for those hunting for flavour rich, fuss-free dinners. While the turkey fixture has long been recognised solely for its seasonal appeal, we are offering retailers a way to tap into protein hungry, health conscious millennials with a new range that draws on exotic flavours and changes perceptions about the taste of turkey.”
