We're truly thrilled to be able to share with you our latest Featured Client, Hy-Vee. Since their inception in 1930 in Beaconsfield, Iowa, Hy-Vee has been celebrated for its commitment to exceptional customer service. After all, their tag line, "Where there's a helpful smile in every aisle" stuck for a reason! Hy-Vee is also an employee-owned grocery store. This means that each of its more than 84,000 employees is a valued member of the Hy-Vee family, and that every move the company makes has their input and benefits in mind. Now, Hy-Vee has over 240 stores in 8 different states. They're especially beloved for the creation of their HealthMarket departments, which focus on bringing healthy, organic produce and other foods to shoppers. They even have in-store chefs and dietitians so that customers can learn how to make better and smarter choices about the foods they choose to eat. (more…)

Whether you're on the hunt for the perfect gift, looking for the right blend to pair with a special dish, or if you just need something to make your day a bit brighter, let’s face it: wine is always a good idea. That's why we're so thrilled to highlight Prestige Wine Imports as our Client of the Month – and we're looking forward to telling you even more about Mezzacorona, their parent company. Mezzacorona Mezzacorona’s vineyards have been thriving since 1904, and they help to bring the best in Italian wines, especially those from the Italian Dolomites, to the United States (it’s safe to say we're all very appreciative of what they do!) The Mezzacorona Difference It's not just the fabulous libations that matter to them: Mezzacorona is highly dedicated to celebrating the culture of wine in its entirety. Prestige Wine Imports and Mezzacorona both value the traditional methods of Italian winemaking, and see their work as a way to both honor and preserve the authenticity and charm of the culture itself (plus, trust us when we tell you: you can certainly taste the difference). Their hard work has clearly paid off, as Prestige Wine Imports was nominated for the "Importer of the Year" in 2017's Wine Enthusiast Wine Star. (more…)

Started as a family business 20 years ago, sWheat Scoop is still produced in Minnesota and sold nationwide. (more…)
