Arnie Katz, Co-Founder and President of Relay Foods, accepting an AFID grant presented by Terry McAuliffe in Richmond: At the core of Relay is our belief that food is not a commodity – that a tomato from one farm is not the same as a tomato from another farm – and that this truly matters...We believe that local producers and farmers should have the ability to build their own brands, and then fulfill the promise of quality that their brand stands for...Our customers arent duped by greenwashing - they are well informed and actively vote with their dollars for Virginia agriculture and local businesses. In fact, because we give over 60% of every dollar spent on local products back to the producers (5 times more than any other grocer) our customers purchases go farther towards supporting their local communities than anywhere else.
