      abstract = {Meat wholesalers, grocery retailers, and food service  firms are becoming fewer In number but larger In size.   Direct sales from packer to retailer are decreasing the  number of meat wholesalers.  The growth of boxed beef is  contributing to the shift to more direct sales from packer  to retailer.  Away-from-home consumption of red meat Is  increasing slowly In relation to at-home consumption.   Chains are gradually taking more of  the grocery retailing  and food service industry market.  Fast  food outlets are  the fastest growing segment of the food  service industry},
