larabar & terra chip giveaway from spencer’s market!

December 7, 2011

I think it’s been too long without a giveaway.

The growing number of online food stores makes me a happy, happy lady. First of all, I don’t have to leave my house. I can sit at my kitchen table, order up a storm, and then rip open packages with delight when they are delivered to my front stoop.

Earlier this week, I was contacted by Ray Mathis, who is a co-founder of the new company, Spencer’s Market. Spencer’s Market is a personalized food website — different from others — because you tell them all about your dietary preferences, and they find products and deals to meet your specific requirements.

After speaking with Ray back and forth for a few days, I was immediately drawn to Spencer’s Market — in the coming months, their goal is to work with small companies and producers who wouldn’t normally get their product in front of a national audience. As a wife of a small business owner, I am definitely on board with this concept. Ray explained it better than I can, so I’ll quote part of what he told me about Spencer’s Market.

“One of the largest establishments in the world is the food industry. We created Spencer’s Market to challenge the status quo. Living in Northern California, we are regularly reminded that small artisanal producers are consistently making better products with better ingredients than anything you could find in the retail setting. Sadly these producers are being held in check by the big companies and distribution hierarchies. Full of barriers to entry, brand awareness and financial success are extremely rare for the small producer, no matter how good their products are. Even if one of these small producers is lucky enough to break through, their margins are so diluted they never see the light of day. We feel this is unfair and set out to create change.

Enter Spencer’s Market. We are a direct to consumer platform specifically designed to introduce incredible food producers/products to audiences that very likely would never know about them. We help build brands and long-term customers for the producer and do our best to ask questions of the consumer so that we can present them with products that we know they’ll love. It’s almost like The Dating Game for food. Tell us what you like and we will use it to find you a perfect match with a product that you’ll fall in love with.” — Ray Mathis, Co-Founder

In the coming weeks, Spencer’s Market is going to be breaking ground and wanted us to be the first ones to know about their new company. To celebrate their new business, Spencer’s Market wants to get you familiarized with their company by hosting a giveaway!

One lucky reader will win the following prize package: 2 bags of Terra Chips (so so delicious) and a box of mini Larabars (winner’s flavor choice). Whoever wins this will have a stuffed stocking this year.
