Business Summary
Cuisine Solutions, Inc. develops, produces and markets chef-created, fully cooked, fully prepared entrees and sauces for the airline, railroad, hotel banquet, restaurant and retail industries. The Company's entrees and sauces are slow-cooked and pasteurized in its final packaging using a process known as sous-vide, a popular method of cooking in France. The Company markets these products to upscale users that demand superior quality, and use the product as a substitute for product that was previously prepared by their own chefs. The Company's product line consists of items not usually available to its customers such as Osso Buco, Chilean Sea Bass, Beef Wellington and Stuffed Pork Chops as well as staple items such as plain and stuffed chicken breast. The precise cooking process allows the Company to prepare a perfect duck breast, rack of lamb or veal chop.
