  • Are you selling as much cheese as you could? Here are five quick reminders of how to stay on top of your game
5 Top Cheese Selling Tips

1 Include tasting notes and all other details on your cheese labels

2 Offer tasters of anything which appears to catch their interest

3 Pre-pack cuts of cheese in various sizes. Priced pieces avoid awkward enquiries. Pre-cuts also allow you to make use off oddly-shaped and sized of-cuts, too

4 Appearance is very important. Ensure work areas are spotless and cling film is unwrinkled. Attractive displays sell cheeses

5 Promote a ‘Cheese of the Week’ and offer back story notes together with tasters
