IT'S EIGHT STRAIGHT FOR STEW LEONARD'S
Family-Owned Food Store Earns Spot on FORTUNE Magazine's "100 Best Companies to Work For" List for Eighth Consecutive Year
About 20 years ago I found a video about his business. The question was asked: "Why are you successfull?"And Stew Leonard answered: "When the customer walks into my shop I see "$ 265 000( might be less, long time ago ) stamped on her forehead, and she is going to spent it in my shop.
"Finally you must look after your people, they are like family, this is the secret."
Stew Leonard's has not had a lay-off in 40 years. There is a lot of loyalty among team members, with 10 percent of the company's workforce having been at the company for 15 years or more. In fact, more than 100 team members have more than 20 years of service.
