2012 Retailer of the Year
Dennis McIntyre, Stater Bros. Markets
Dennis McIntyer the Executive Vice Presidentof Marketing for Stater Bros. Markets,
Longtime executive accepts award for the company, not for himself
The Dairy Deli Bakery Council (DDBC) of Southern California certainly admires Dennis McIntyre, the Executive Vice President of Marketing for Stater Bros. Markets, and shows it by tapping him as the organization’s 2012 Retailer of the Year.
McIntyre is a member of the Mutual Admiration Society, but with a caveat. “This is an award for Stater Bros. Markets, not for me,” he insists. “This is about us trying to give back to the DDBC because of all the great things they have done for the industry.”
2012 Supplier of the Year
Lisa Juarez, Bar-S Foods
If anyone deserves to take a deep breath,
kick her shoes off, put her feet up and relax
– even for a little bit – it would be Lisa Juarez of Bar-S Foods.
Her reaction? “Ha!” She simply is too
busy for that … and that was reflected in all of 2012, which resulted in her being selected as the Supplier of the Year by the Dairy Deli
Bakery Council (DDBC) of Southern California.
Besides a job that entails keeping the
nation’s No. 1 hot dog line, among other items, on the shelves at Ralphs, Food 4 Less, Stater Bros., and Super A Foods, she took on the Herculean task of General Chairmanof the National Seminar … a year-long project that started early and finished late on a daily basis.
