Everyone loves snack foods like chips, pretzels, candy, and more. The next big thing in snacks could be right here in Michigan.
The MI New Favorite Snack Competition has begun the search for Michigan’s next great snack food. The top prize is $30,000 and a distribution contract with All-Star Services, a Port Huron-based company that supplies workplace vending throughout the state.
The second-place prize is $15,000 and the third-place prize is $5,000. The entry period has begun and goes until August 1st. The finalists will compete for the top prizes on September 17th.
To qualify, entrants must have appropriate licensing and insurance and be headquartered in Michigan. The makers of the snack foods must be a small business with no more than ten employees at the time of entry and have the product packaged for consumer purchase.
The registration for MI New Favorite Snack is hosted by the Blue Water Chamber of Commerce and is supported by the Community Foundation of St. Clair County.
