Caribou Coffee has awarded Boelter Companies with its Supplier of the Year award for partnership in providing outstanding service, supply, innovation, and project management to Caribou. Boelter Companies is the Minneapolis-based coffee company's furniture, fixture, and equipment supplier.
"We are proud to partner with a supplier who shares our commitment to enhancing the Caribou Coffee experience for our team members and guests," says Karen Francois, senior director of strategic sourcing at Caribou Coffee. "Boelters' leadership in distribution and project management along with their continuous support of store design and execution is what makes them the top-rated partner and our 2014 Supplier of the Year."
"We are extremely honored to receive this recognition from Caribou Coffee," says Eric Boelter, president of Boelter Companies. "Our team has worked diligently to deliver sustainable value to Caribou Coffee and we look forward to expanding our partnership in the future."
The Supplier of the Year Award is based upon performance data, compliance, innovation, quality, service, responsiveness, and corporate social responsibility. Caribou Coffee will provide Boelter with a tangible award and will display a plaque in Caribou's Support Center lobby. The plaque will display each year's Supplier of the Year winner.
