Imagine you are walking through Italy, wandering ancient streets and seeing post-card worthy moments. You pass a nearby cafe and get a whiff of their fresh assortment of food. One item in particular catches your eye, an Italian staple, a delectable Margherita pizza. You ask the manager, “What’s in that?” He smiles and tells you about the hand-tossed dough from Rome and pesto derived straight from the Liguria region of Northern Italy. Your mouth starts to water as he lists the ingredients. Well, what if we told you that you’re not actually in Italy, but in your own community? That nearby cafe that caught your attention is really your local Sam’s Club, and that assortment of food? It’s part of the launch of our new artisanal collection, the latest innovation from our Member’s Mark brand. The manager you talked to? One of our valued associates, proudly walking you through the thoughtfully sourced ingredients behind our new Member’s Mark Artisan Margherita Pizza.
Turns out, you don’t need a passport to experience Rome, just a Sam’s Club membership.
Crafted with care: The story behind Member’s Mark Artisan Margherita Pizza
Launching across our clubs now is the Member’s Mark 12” Artisan Margherita Pizza, a premium and convenient meal solution for members. This special pizza pie takes you on a journey to Italy, where the artisan crust is hand-stretched to perfection. That journey was one where Glenn Lewis, senior manager of product development and sourcing, and Anthony Sumlin, senior director of merchandising, Prepared Foods, went together to help create the best pizza for our members. Both Glenn and Anthony worked in the pizza industry before, so this played to their expertise, and was a passion for them.
