Thank you for never pushing mandates on your drivers or workers. Thank you for always being fair and having great prices. Thank you for putting God first and doing what is right. God bless you all.

    Hey David, thank you for this information. I did call in when one of my items almost doubled in price. Unfortuately, the young man who handled my call couldn't give me any reason for the increase (or why it was not in stock although the site said it was). I asked to speak to someone who did know, but he couldn't find anyone. I was frustrated and he didn't understand why a simple apology from him wasn't enough. I had no knowledge of what goes behind the scenes on pricing and stocking of your products. I appreciate the lesson.

    Our concern here in Texas is fertilizer prices and we feel very uncertain about food production because of that. Trucking impacts prices but farmers who won’t plant might be a bigger issue. Maybe in Oregon your land doesn’t require fertilizer but our land is not capable of producing enough yields to off set fuel and fertilizer costs. I see this as a possible issue for supply’s

    • @azurestandard
      @azurestandard  2 года назад +20

      You're right, there is a lot of farm land that depends on fertilizer and that will have an impact on food supply. Azure has not depended on petroleum based fertilizer for nearly 50 years and our soil will now produce without outside inputs, just from proper crop rotations and cover crops, unlike soil addicted to petroleum fertilizer. We do use some outside inputs, but they're not the same as most farmers use so we won't be affected in the same way. As always, we are committed to doing everything we can to keep a good supply of healthy food available.
