We believe diverse businesses make our world better.

We support the St. Louis Mosaic Project. Launched in 2012, the St. Louis Mosaic Project’s goal is to transform STL into the fastest growing major metropolitan area for immigration. They work toward their goal by connecting international professionals, students and entrepreneurs to resources, mentors, and networking opportunities that can help them achieve long-term success and a true sense of belonging.

According to the Small Business Administration, businesses with fewer than 500 employees create two-thirds of net new jobs and drive US innovation and competitiveness.

The consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry data leader Information Resources Inc. (IRI) classifies a company “small” if sales are between $100 million to $1 billion.

We are passionate about helping small businesses get their big break.

It’s no small task to succeed in big retail. It takes more that a great product. A small business must be able to communicate effectively with retailers, fulfill operational requirements, and deliver on brand marketing promises — all on a budget that’s only a fraction of the size compared with the competition.

We are inspired by the courage and spirit of immigrants. In some small way, we understand what it is like to struggle and succeed against the odds. We are humbled and honored to do our part to further the great aim of opportunity and prosperity for all.
