Much like we heard from Middleby with their grill brands, it was a soft first quarter for grill sales at Traeger. Unlike Middleby though, Traeger saw growth in consumables and accessories to help make up the revenue. MEATER continues to be a great performer and is the leader in accessory growth.
New Innovations and Promotions
Last year Traeger released the new Ironwood and the Flatrock griddle in Q1, which caused load in from retailers and higher sales. This year they didn’t have any big innovations to buoy their performance.
