Joe E., Store Manager

“Every day, I get to lead a fantastic team dedicated to serving our community. I’m also hands-on in the meat department, where I make sure we offer only the best quality meats. What I love most about my job is the chance to provide more than just food; it’s about offering a genuine, old-fashioned grocery store experience. We’re here to talk about the kids’ football game or help load your car, it’s all part of the service. I’m proud to say my team is like a second family, and together, we’re honored to serve you.”

Jersie, K., Assistant Manager

“My favorite part of the job is definitely getting to see all the friendly faces. It’s not just about what I do; it’s about the people I get to see and talk to every day. You get to be so involved with the community, hearing about what’s going on and helping out wherever you can. It’s a great feeling to know you’re not just working, but you’re a part of something bigger.’

Carolyn E., Marketing Specialist & Store Clerk

“Hey there! I’m the person behind the scenes… and the counter! My day is all about making sure you have the best possible experience, whether I’m ringing up your order, helping you navigate the aisles, or running our Facebook page and website. (Yes, it’s me responding to all your comments, and I love the chat!) The best part of my job is definitely connecting with our customers. I believe a good grocery store is the heart of the community, and I’m proud to play a part in it. It’s the daily conversations and connections that make my work so rewarding.”

Jeannette V., Store Clerk

“As a student at Trinity Bible College, I’ve really enjoyed working at the grocery store because it gives me the chance to step off campus, and have conversations with people in the community. I like getting to know customers, hearing a little bit about their day, and being a friendly face they can count on. These small interactions make the job meaningful, and remind me how important it is to connect with others beyond the classroom.”

Noah H., Store Clerk & Stockman

“I really appreciate my job because it stands steady and reliable while I’m in college. The business is great about being flexible with my school schedule, and in return, I’m happy to give whatever time I can. It’s also an amazing opportunity for students like me to connect with and contribute to the community.”

Severin P., Stockman

“I really enjoy my job because of the supportive team and management, and the competitive compensation is a great benefit as well.”

Randy F., Meat Clerk

“I grew up at Fran’s Bakery and Family Restaurant, where my brothers, sister, and I managed the pizza shop from within. Personally, I also managed the bakery and trained the Trautman’s in the bakery business when my folks sold it to them. I’ve never gone to business school, but I did attend NDSCS for auto body until my father slipped on the ice and shattered his bottom vertebrae. I quit school and came home to manage the bakery. I did very well at it, which surprised my folks a bit. That’s where I got all my training for cutting meat. Every year for the county fair or weddings, we would cut meat for barbecue. It’s about mingling with customers and sharing tidbits on how to prepare cuts and which meat might be best for a specific occasion. It’s the people I love the most. Everybody has something to offer, even if they don’t realize it. Everyone was taught by someone, and that person, over time, perfected their way of transforming a meal or processing it to give it their own flavor with spices, herbs, and one little pinch of this or that, it makes all the difference in the world.”
