This is Chris Redgrave for Zions Bank Speaking on Business.
David Sheets started Emergency Essentials in his home 24 years ago because he wanted to help people get prepared. He knows firsthand the peace it brings to a family and home when you're ready for life's unexpected events.
The staff at Emergency Essentials is also committed to creating food for storage that tastes good so you can rotate the items into your kitchen and continue to make the most of this investment into your peace of mind and security.
The brand name, Provident Pantry, is not the same food storage product that was around 30 years ago. Technology has helped increase the taste and quality of stored foods, which makes rotating easier. The powdered eggs or instant non-fat milk are not only used for storage but are great to keep on the shelf for baking. Freeze-dried products are another option, and they're frozen in a way to maintain the most flavor and nutrients.
Emergency Essentials started as a small store in Provo and has grown to four stores along the Wasatch Front. They also ship their products all over the United States, and food storage is only part of what this company has to offer. They have specially designed 72-hour kits that you can take camping, hiking or to work.
They also have an auto kit, in case you get stranded. You just throw it in the trunk. In fact, if you check out one of their brochures, you could basically create your own 72-hour kit for the car, boat or motor home. Unless you've been through it personally, it's hard to stop and think about everything you need.
At Emergency Essentials, education is an important focus. On their website, beprepared.com, you can learn about water storage and filtration, emergency equipment, solar power or how to cook with your food storage. This Orem company that sends out items nationwide has grown mostly through word of mouth and lots of people enjoy the free catalog. Another great example of why we have the best business climate in the nation.
For Zions Bank, I'm Chris Redgrave, speaking on business.
