We always call MIRA with whatever problems we may have and they always solve it. They work very hard. They always call me and let me know what’s going on and what changes are coming, so it’s very helpful.

I serve on the board to help out where I can, stay involved, and be a part of the success of our industry.”

“We need to promote membership so that the MIRA can prosper, and so that retailers are on the same page. Membership makes us stronger.

MIRA helps us have a larger voice in the government as it relates to the food industry. We have connections with many city leaders and hopefully that helps us compete with the big businesses that are moving into Detroit because of tax incentives.

This industry is in my blood, and I want to serve it to give back what it has brought me.”

“I learned the business from others who were successful and being on the board gives me a chance to communicate how to better serve the industry—as well as make more money—to those who don’t yet know how. It’s important to hand our knowledge over to those who are new or are taking over a family business. We need to ask them what their most important issues are and help them understand the return on investment they can realize through MIRA’s programs, which save them money through better group pricing on everything they buy and all of their business expenses.” “If people know what MIRA is fighting for, they will want to be part of it. And if we work together, we can raise our industry to the next level.

Especially in this difficult economy and with so many regulations, we need to have people who can speak for our industry and fight for our causes.”

“I want MIRA’s base to be wider because new members mean a larger organization and a stronger voice – which enables organizations like MIRA to affect what happens in local, state, and federal government – and a strong voice depends on building a good, solid base.

First, the MIRA program provides a great link to bringing together Nestle Direct Store Delivery with potential new retailers and customers who would like to sell Nestle frozen food that otherwise we may never have come in contact with. Second, the MIRA program allows Nestle to develop specific promotions for MIRA retailers to help drive business. Best of all, This is accomplished while developing great relationships with both the staff and members of MIRA.
