Information that's Good to Know

Last month, Goodwill Integrated Solutions was pleased to host Suppliers Partnership for the Environment (SP) for their quarterly meeting. SP members were treated to a welcoming reception at Midtown Detroit’s Shinola flagship location featuring local Detroit favorites like Two James Distillery, Reilly Craft Creamery, and Sha La Cynts Popcorn. Live entertainment provided by Matthew LoRusso Jazz Quartet filled the Midtown neighborhood at Canfield and Cass Avenue as guests strolled through the fine leather goods retailer enjoying light bites and sweets from Casper’s Catering and Sister Pie.

Goodwill Detroit’s CEO, Dan Varner, brought greetings and Shannon Washburn, VP of Watch Product Development shared Shinola’s story.

The following morning, Motor City Casino and Hotel was the site for SP’s official meeting which included a tour of the neighboring Goodwill Integrated Solutions. SP members learned about Goodwill’s extensive capabilities as a Tier 1 supplier and the critical programs we’re able to provide to the community due to Goodwill Integrated Solutions’ continued success.

Thank you to all for joining us and to SP for allowing us to host!
