Ford's Gourmet Foods is proud to be back in San Francisco and to once
again be a part of the NASFT's Winter Fancy Foods Show. Please come visit us at the show in booth 1446.
For many years we have come to this show with new
lines and new flavors of some proven favorites, evidence of our continued
commitment to product development. While
we don't have anything new from a product standpoint other than new sizes and
new labels to share, we certainly have had our share of good news in 2008.
Our focus for 2008 was on continuing to build
relationships with our long standing customers as well beginning a few new
ones. We're proud to say that Ford's
Gourmet Foods, anchored by the Bone Suckin' Sauce line, can now be found in
more than 42 countries around the world.
Our Bone Suckin' Sauces remain the only barbecue
sauces rated #1 by Newsweek, Food & Wine, House and Garden, Restaurant
UK and A+ Health Magazine. We were recognized for our efforts to provide
Gluten Free products by Columbia University's Celiac Disease
Center, one of the
leading research centers in the field.
We were honored with the first ever North Carolina Exporter of the Year
award and during the ceremony, we were told it was unheard of a company exporting
barbecue sauce and peanuts outside NC or the USA. We were also named one of the Top 20 Small
and Mid-sized Market Players by the Consumer
Products Guide.
We are grateful for the success and accolades that
our products have received. But we also
realize we have a responsibility to give back to the trade that has given us so
much. That includes becoming advocates
for businesses like ours, working to protect the ability of those like us to
continue to be successful in the United States and abroad.
In 2008, we became charter members of an export
advisory council for a division of the North Carolina Department of
Agriculture. In May, because of our work
promoting export, we were one of two NC companies invited to the White House to
hear The President's speech to honor World Trade Week. In October we exhibited to 180,000 food
buyers at Sial France
helping represent The USA and SUSTA, The Southern United States Trade
Association.
In addition, all members of MAP, Market Access Program
and Foreign Market Development Program
benefited in this year's budget from Patrick's testimony in front of the United States
Congress in 2007. These programs are designed to assist U.S. producers, exporters, and
trade organizations in developing, maintaining, and expanding export activities
in global markets.
The most important thing we wanted to share with you
is that behind all of this news, you will still find a fourth generation,
Raleigh, North Carolina-based family business and an outstanding team dedicated
to creating some of the world's greatest tasting, all natural foods. From the internationally acclaimed line of
Bone Suckin' Sauces, Wine Nuts and Fire Dancer Jalapeno Peanuts, to the new
Earth Family Organics and Naturals and now, A'Lese Tois chocolates, Ford's Gourmet
Foods is known to make and/or distribute the best.
Thank you for your continued support and
partnership. We look forward to spending
time with you at this year's show.
Sincerely,
Sandi Ford
