Members and shareholders choose logo

In April, the Board of Directors conducted a poll by mail ballot of all members, shareholders and staff to obtain the opinions of a larger proportion of our stakeholders regarding the selection of a logo. Participation in the logo contest previously held was less than 100 people, with no requirement that voters be members or shareholders, a situation considered unsatisfactory by the Board. The poll had 517 valid ballots returned, and the “Sun” logo was the clear winner with 271 votes, a majority of the ballots cast. Based on this poll, the Board of Directors passed a resolution making it the official logo of the Honest Weight Food Coop. Since we have used this logo in the past, it will not be a major change for us; but we will now have some consistency in print and on promotional products, which will help identify HWFC to others. Please watch for and plan to purchase t-shirts, mugs and other products with our logo when they become available, and use them proudly to proclaim your support for HWFC.
