The Fresh Factory remains dedicated to community support and sustainability by donating all product extras, sourcing locally, utilizing product seconds, and composting all of its waste and is currently working toward creating a carbon-neutral facility.

"Chicago is the central hub for products being able to go in each direction in the country," Besenhofer explains. "With its strategic location, we are capable of reaching nearly every corner of the country within a one-to-two-day timeframe, a logistical advantage distinct from coastal locations. I emphasize to every customer we encounter that the Midwest functions as a key hub, offering seamless connectivity to every region of the United States."

Treasurer Frerichs is optimistic about the future of Illinois businesses and reaffirmed his office's commitment to driving growth and innovation throughout the state.

"Too often the bad news drowns out the good," Treasurer Frerichs said. "We have incredibly talented, entrepreneurial, and visionary people who are founding innovative companies right here in Illinois. I am proud of our state's ability to invest in businesses that are committed to creating great job opportunities, retaining great talent, and producing goods and services that benefit the common good."
