Hy-Vee Seeks Suppliers for Best of Local Brands Summit

Hy-Vee will host its next quarterly Best of Local Brands Summit on August 2 as part of an effort to expand and enhance its product offerings. It will consist of 15- to 30-minute virtual presentations from selected suppliers.

Hy-Vee will accept submissions for the summit beginning this Monday, June 12, at www.rangeme.com/hyveebestoflocal23q3 in the following categories of retail-ready products: grocery, produce, deli, general merchandise, frozen, dairy, and health and beauty care. The submission deadline is Monday, June 26.

All product submissions will be made through RangeMe, an online product discovery and sourcing platform. All meetings will be conducted through ECRM’s virtual meeting platform, ECRM Connect. Suppliers not chosen for participation in this summit will still be accessible through RangeMe and may be reviewed by Hy-Vee again in the future.

Since the Best of Local Brands summits began in early 2021, more than 125 new brands have been selected and are available to Hy-Vee customers.
