presented and accepted through top Quaker management “
W. Smithburg, CEO Quaker Oats Company

targeted merchandising, which moved a lot of chili " - Sales &
Marketing Management Magazine
“The $100,000 "Who's the Lowest" sweepstakes from RJR

promotion." William A. Robinson, Advertising Age

"A summer program tied to chili dog consumption generated
record June volume at standard deal rates, making up the
shortfall during the third quarter… The Borden cheese, Rotel
Chili dip Super Bowl promotion was an excellent shared cost
promotion orchestrated by Richard with other companies, who
paid for the majority of the cost” Wolf Brand President
"Despite an extremely tight schedule and early production
problems which shortened the pre - sell, Wolf Brand has proven
its ability to successfully establish a strong presence in a new,
growing category...a year ahead of schedule." Wolf Brand
President

Condiment category of the contest" - Prepared Foods Magazine
