Jedwards hopes our readers are closing out the year with gratitude and happiness while looking forward to another new year of setting goals, making positive changes, and embracing what’s in store for you next!
As a quick recap of the 2025 year at Jedwards, we introduced over 20 brand new products and raw materials for our dedicated client base in addition to expanding our catalog with organic or conventional varieties of a number of existing materials. Our purchasing team is always hard at work sourcing new materials, vetting producers, and keeping their pulse on changes in consumer trends to stay on top of in-demand new ingredients.
We were delighted to return to the HCSG conference in Reno, NV this year, giving us an opportunity to connect with more west coast customers and build new relationships. Next year, you’ll be given the opportunity to visit us at the 27th annual HCSG conference in our home region of New England at the Mohegan Sun Resort in Mystic, CT from April 13-16, 2026. We hope to see you there!
In 2025, we all faced ongoing challenges due to tariffs going into effect, impacting many materials we source from other countries and driving up costs substantially in many cases. We continue to monitor the situation closely and work to absorb as much of the increased costs as much as possible to keep our customers afloat. Jedwards remains committed to providing competitive wholesale pricing for high-quality ingredients going into 2026.
Thank you for being our loyal customer and making each year a continued success! We at Jedwards wish you all a safe and joyous new year, see you all in 2026!
