Power couple! They left there jobs after Horizon Consulting Partners spoke to these hard working individuals Matthew Hensley, MBA Grace Hensley . They have two children, and they went all in. If they can do it, there’s no reason you guys can’t do it out there. Call us at 864-638-1046. I never said it was easy, it’s always going to be work. I can say this. I would much rather work for myself then go work for someone else. I have never understood, why people are taught to go make other people rich when they are children. ie. Go to college to get a good paying job… How about saying go to school, and go create something, take a chance, learn from mistakes, but never give up… We need parents to teach their children to take a leap, to be entrepreneurs, to be inventors, and stop settling for a job. There’s nothing wrong with liking your career field, and there’s nothing wrong initially to have a job to learn a skill, but to be there your entire life and go through job changes and have a résumé that reflects 6 to 10 jobs throughout your career that’s a lot. Few people today actually keep their jobs for 20 to 30 years working for the same company. They were dinosaurs in the workforce, time to make a change, time for all of you out there to start believing in yourselves. So what if you fail? You can always go work for someone, but don’t live your life with regret, not a single one of us will know if we’re going to be alive tomorrow. So when I hear people, I’ll consider this years down the road you don’t even know if you’re going to be alive to consider anything. The only person holding you back in life is the person in the mirror, which is yourself. “ birds of a feather flock together, if you want to fly with the eagles, you cannot be scratching down with the turkeys. “

In the ever-changing world of grocery store acquisitions, brand strategy is constantly in flux. In 2014, Albertsons acquired Safeway, resulting in a mix of outcomes: some stores retained their original branding while others were rebranded or closed. Similarly, Kroger's acquisition of Roundy's Supermarkets in 2015 led to the retention of Mariano's brand but also resulted in some locations being converted or closed. The Ahold Delhaize conglomerate, formed from the 2016 merger of Ahold and Delhaize Group, saw many stores retain their branding. It also included sales and closures as part of their consolidation efforts. In 2006, Supervalu's acquisition of numerous Albertsons stores eventually led to rebranding under the Jewel-Osco banner or closure. These examples illustrate the dynamic nature of brand strategy following grocery store acquisitions. #business #grocery #management

Your partnerships should be customer-driven. Krispy Kreme's customers have been asking them to expand locations. Alone, that wasn't going to happen. Partnering, now that's a different story. Krispy Kreme and McDonald's began this partnership with a "pilot" at 160 locations in the Kentucky area. Excitement and demand exceeded expectations which prompted a deeper partnership between these two giants. "Three of Krispy Kreme’s most popular doughnuts will be delivered fresh to McDonald’s restaurants every day. They’ll be available individually, or in boxes of six, starting at breakfast and lasting throughout the day – while supplies last." This partnership: 1) Is rooted in the customer. 2) Brings Krispy Kreme to new geographies. 3) Brings loyal Krispy Kreme customers to McDonalds --- Shoutout to Sam Yarborough for initially breaking the story on LinkedIn! --- Love the story?

Billionaire C&S Wholesale Grocers owner, Rick Cohen, struck a deal to buy 413 stores from the potential Kroger-Albertsons' merger, but history has demonstrated that it might not be as straightforward as simple supermarket acquisitions. In 2000, C&S Wholesale Grocers bought 185 stores from Grand Union . Within a year C&S Wholesale Grocers had sold more than 140 of those stores and many "ultimately closed". With #WIGs legislation proposed, are these corporations who we want to hand the reins of New York's #wine and #liquor industry? https://lnkd.in/eiwijqk7 #WineinGroceries #Wine #Liquor #LiquorStore #SmallBusiness #Kroger #Albertsons #NewYork #NYC

7-Eleven is set to acquire 204 Stripes convenience stores and Laredo Taco Co. restaurants in the U.S. from Sunoco LP. This move expands 7-Eleven's presence in west Texas, New Mexico, and Oklahoma. The acquisition aligns with 7-Eleven's strategic focus on foodservice and aims to connect its network with Speedway alongside highways, increasing regional market share and accelerating growth in North America. As per the statement from Seven & i, 7-Eleven Inc. will concentrate on four key strategic areas in the medium term: 1) Increase the development and distribution of its exclusive products (fresh foods, proprietary beverages, and private brands) to represent 34% of sales by 2025. This involves enhancing merchandise margins and reinforcing the overall value chain. 2) Target a revenue of $1 billion by expediting growth through a value proposition focused on high-quality food and immediate consumables delivered rapidly in the 7NOW delivery business 3) Achieve complete integration with Speedway and realize $800 million synergies in 2023, with the goal of expanding synergies further. 4) Sustain growth in the fragmented North American market by exploring opportunities for mergers & acquisitions and establishing new stores organically. In 2015, Sunoco LP acquired Susser Holdings and its Stripes c-stores. In years pursuant to this, various major oil players were shedding retail holdings, and in January 2018, Sunoco did the same, with a disposition of 1,030 stores in 17 states to 7-Eleven's parent company, Seven & i Holdings Co. Ltd., Tokyo, for $3.3 billion. For landlord's of original Stripes locations, this latest acquisition will provide a massive credit upgrade.
