If you're a local business and want to grow by getting your product in one of the most popular grocery stores in the Quad Cities, then this is good news for you. Every quarter, Hy-Vee hosts its Best of Local Brands Summit, and the submission for the next summit kicks off next week.

It's exciting to see local brands from the Quad Cities get put on shelves not only at Hy-Vee stores in our area but at other locations throughout the Midwest.
