Hi,
I'm trying to figure out correct pricing for herbs and other unusual
items to be sold to a chef who puts on smallish dinner parties/events
(20 - 30 people @ $40 to $50 per person). I've only done csa sales
before and don't have much experience selling small quantities to a
chef. I want to go in with a good idea of how to price and not seem
like a complete novice. I don't want to undercut myself as this might
be a very regular outlet for my herbs and other unusual items. I
imagine she'll be buying no more than a pound or 2 of any one item at a
time. Anyone have any experience out there?
I'm selling her specialty herbs and some unusual items. Here they are:
sorrel
bronze fennel
pea shoots
sunflower shoots
stinging nettle
Thanks for any input.
Dan
