Mitten Crate Packs A Michigan Retail Punch For Cyber Monday

HARRISON TOWNSHIP (WWJ) - A Cyber Monday package in a crate - filled with a variety of made in Michigan products.

Co-founders Andrew Chmielewski and Cory Wright are on a mercantile mission to introduce Michiganders to made in Michigan products.

"People that you would only find, like in a farmers market or a speciality store, you are not going to find them on the shelves of every supermarket you go to," said Chmielewski co-founder of Mitten Crate.

"Everybody knows Faygo and Better Made - and those are all great companies, but they don't necessarily need the exposure that the little guys need - open up one of these Mitten Crates - 90 percent of the products in there you've probably never heard of," noted Wright.

The Harrison Township company fills hundreds of boxes, or crates, each month with curated food products, like sausage, mustard, coffee, or popcorn , produced specifically by Michigan made companies from all across the Mitten.

Cyber Monday deals include a special three-month subscription.
