Celebrating 20 Years of Monogram Foods

20 Years of Growth and Giving Back

In 2024, Monogram Foods celebrates 20 years! Our story starts in 2004 when co-founders Karl Schledwitz and Wes Jackson set out to provide world-class service and solutions to private label and co-manufacturing partners. Now, two decades later, Monogram is a billion dollar company that employs 4,000 team members and operates 13 locations across seven states.

To celebrate, we embarked on a year of celebration and giving back to the communities and team members that have supported us every step of the way. Some examples of our 20-year observances and projects include:

• MonogramCares – In 2024, we established an employee emergency fund through which our team members can apply for grants to help them through life’s unexpected circumstances.
• $1 Million for Monogram Foods Loves Kids Foundation – To celebrate our communities, we aim to raise a record $1 million for our Foundation in 2024.
• Birthday Parties – In every location across our footprint our team members are hosting special events to celebrate this momentous occasion.
• 20 for 20 – Our Support Center team committed to 20 acts of kindness and celebration such as a ‘Cop Stop’ where they cooked for and fed dozens of first responders. Other activities include a day of service with local charities, a coat and clothing drive for the underserved this winter, tree planting, and more.
• Feeding Families Initiative – We understand that we cannot thrive if the communities where we operate are not thriving, which is why we created this initiative to make a direct imact on food insecurity. We donated $80,000 to local food banks.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us for 20 years. HERE’S TO 20 MORE, AND BEYOND!
