Yesterday we were blessed to have ABC13 air a story about what small business owners can do now and try our hardest to survive. https://abc13.com/6054230
The story illustrates how if everyone makes one purchase of a pecan pie how many are going to stay employed. We chose that product because it ships the best and has a long shelf life. To make a difference large total quantities need to be ordered. We mentioned 1,000,000 pies as a challenge, but even 20,000-50,000 would have a huge impact.
Here are all the people that would be touched by this multitude of individual purchases:
- Three Brothers Bakery could hire vs just trying to survive.
These vendors would also be kept working:
- Seal maker
- Shrink wrap maker
- Flour, sugar would be needed in large quantities
- Secret ingredients in large quantities
- Bakery Supply house would be providing these ingredients and delivering them to us
- Pecan growers would provide lots of nuts
- Pie tin maker
- Utilities would be higher helping bring revenue to gas and electric companies
- Shrink wrap maker
- Our logo sticker maker
- Box maker – the award-winning red/white box
- If wooden boxes are ordered – woodworkers would be working
- Shipping box maker
- Graphics person will make a special insert
- Printer will print our inserts
- Tape for closing up the shipping boxes
- Company that makes the FedEx labels
- FedEx would be picking up, flying, and delivering our pies all over the country
- Lots of people would have a bite of sweetness.
This purchase of one pie would touch so many people and their families. Who knew it took a village to make a pie? Will you help us by taking a part of this challenge to buy a pie for yourself or someone you want to send a bite of love to while we are #AloneTogether? https://3brothersbakery.com/product/award-winning-southern-pecan-pie/
