It is important to give back to our great industry by doing everything possible to improve the overall well-being of MIRA members.”

“There is strength in numbers. In 2011, the retail environment will change very quickly, and it is critical that MIRA grows stronger in every aspect of our businesses.

Gary DavisPrairie Farms Dairy, Oak Park MI

MIRA has a large impact on the industry and on my family business. Having input on decision making in Lansing and Washington is essential. We need to be a strong voice of the industry to survive.

Thomas WelchHollywood Super Markets, Troy MI

Taking part in MIRA events like the trade show and annual dinner gives us opportunities to contact both current and potential customers, and most importantly – thank them for their valuable business

Bill HillmanHT Hackney

MIRA does a really good job at keeping us abreast of big issues for retailers. Item pricing, for example, saved us a ton of money, and MIRA also helped get rid of Michigan’s MBT tax,” “MIRA is truly the voice of our industry!

Ed BahouraSave-A-Lot

It’s very important to be part of the industry you serve. MIRA is an important organization and being part of a great team gives us the voice to fight for what we believe in and the power to know we are being treated fairly.”

“Unity is our strength, and the more members we have, the stronger we become.

MIRA is very instrumental in trying to partner with vendors in trying to get better protection on pricing in as many ways as they can.
