Dear Friends:

Holidays and special occasions are an important part of life, and finding the perfect gift for each celebration can be difficult. Look no further because we think you will find a number of different items in this brochure that will help you satisfy your gift needs.

This brochure, sponsored by the Nebraska Department of Agriculture, identifies Nebraska food and meat companies who package food products in a variety of different ways. Whether you are looking for gift baskets, gift boxes, gift crates, or other uniquely packaged food products, you will find several Nebraska companies in the pages to follow who have these capabilities.

What better way to celebrate the holidays and special occasions than giving a gift from Nebraska. Throughout the year, we encourage you to use this directory and make Nebraska your key connection to reliable suppliers of high-quality food and meat products. If you would like additional copies of this free brochure, please contact our Ag Promotion and Development Division either by e-mail at agr.promo@nebraska.gov or via phone at 800-422-6692.

Sincerely,

Greg Ibach
Director
