Suja Juice Corporate Office

Suja Juice was founded in San Diego, California, in 2012 by four friends, Annie Lawless, Eric Ethan, James Brennen and Jeff Church. Lawless and Ethan were upset that they could not find GMO free, organic juice, so they decided to start their own company.

The company created and blends GMO free, certified organic juices. The company uses a procedure called HIgh Pressure Processing, which allows more juice to be squeezed from the fruit or vegetables used. Only BPA free, PETE plastic bottles are used. There are several different varieties to choose from, including vegan, kosher, gluten free, and soy free.

In 2015, Coca Cola took a 15% minority share of the company for $90 million. The objective was to sell Suja Juice through Coca Cola’s extensive distribution network. At this time, the product is sold only in the US or online.

Acme Fresh Market Corporate Office

Acme Fresh Market was founded in 1891 by a local grocer, Frederick Wilhelm Albrecht, after buying out his brother’s share of a market. Originally called Albrecht’s, Fredrick changed the name to Acme, after visiting Philadelphia and seeing how many people came to a grocery store there called Acme. The company operates a chain of grocery stores in Ohio.

The company began to expand over the years but lately has changed its focus from non-food items to Fresh Market branding. Since the early 2000s, many stores have been overhauled or remodeled to make them look more modern. The company has more plans for expansion, as they own a large piece of land in Medina, Ohio. Current plans are to have 5 shopping centers, anchored by a huge 68,000-square-foot Acme Fresh Market location.

Acme Fresh Market also features Quick Clinics for simple medical needs, such as vaccinations, some locations have fueling stations, and most have pharmacies. There are currently 16 locations and one is a pharmacy-only store.

In August 2022, Acme Markets applied with Ohio state to allow them to place sports gaming kiosks inside certain locations.

Butterball Corporate Office

Butterball was founded in June of 1940 when Ada Walker of Wyoming, Ohio, applied for a patent for her way of making turkey. Today, Butterball is one of the leading producers of turkeys in the US. The company sells more than 1 billion pounds of turkey meat each year.

Although the Butterball name has been around since 1940, the word was actually just a trademark. It became a company in 2006 when Maxwell Farms and Seaboard Corporation, who each owned half of the name, decided to join forces and create Butterball, LLC.

In 2008, the company states that it had $1.5 billion in revenue and employs more than 5,500 persons. The company is most famous for its pop-out type of timer, which indicates that the turkey is thoroughly cooked, as well as their Turkey Talk Line, where customers can ask for help with their turkey.

In March 2021, employees at the Butterball plant in North Carolina began vaccination efforts against the COVID-19 virus.

Foster Farms Corporate Office

Foster Farms was founded in 1939 by Max and Verda Foster in Modesto, California. The couple initially started off with turkeys, with the back porch of the house being the company office. Foster Farms operates a large West coast poultry company.

Today, the company is one of the largest poulty producers in the West, known more for their chickens than turkeys. The company has fought hard to keep the word “natural” in their products and attempting to keep the poultry industry free from animal abuse or other types of animal mismanagement.

Foster Farms is still owned and operated by the Foster Family. In 2013, the company was certified as a “humane producer” by the American Humane Society.
