BANC Spotlight

A big thank you goes to BizXchange for continuing to be an active member of the BANC!! Here are a few examples of great items that BizXchange has to offer:

We use only the finest gourmet foods and gift products to create our baskets, all of which are beautifully enhanced to ensure your gift will be remembered.

Award Winning Silver Cup Blend Coffee -
 McCormicks & Schmicks Cup Competition voted as "Best Cup", "Best Espresso", "Best Morning Cup", and "Best Compliment to Dessert". This is a combination of carefully chosen beans from Central and South America, Indonesia, and Africa. Blended and roasted together to create a rich full bodied complex coffee, with a hint of spice at a medium roast. Strong enough for espresso, but crosses over for the perfect drip, press pot, or toddy brew. 1 Lb Ground for Toddy.
