Material Detail

Most U.S. companies experience the effects of global trade increases and loss of revenue to foreign competition. Large manufacturers in the U.S. can mitigate these issues by lowering costs, moving production offshore, and other tactics. However, some businesses cannot transfer costs overseas, including local businesses in the food industry that need certain or all aspects of production to remain local. This allows for sustainable food production, processing, distribution, and consumption all to be integrated in order to boost the economic, environmental and social health of a local community. Furthermore, these businesses become socially responsible citizens and positively influence multiple stakeholders. One such business is Bueno Foods (Bueno) based in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
