Tips From a Retailer
The 2019 Made in Montana Tradeshow is coming up on March 15 and 16! With that in mind, we wanted to share a few tips on how to excel in the retail space from last year’s winner of our Retailer of the Year award: Gwen Croghan of Chalet Market.
The charming chalet-style store was first opened in 1976 by a group of local ranchers who were looking for a way to locally sell their meat. Croghan bought the store in 2012 and carries on this tradition by sourcing her products locally, regionally and from across Montana – in addition to producing her own.
Croghan sat down with us to tell us what she looks for when sourcing products and how producers can increase their impact in the retail space.
