IN Food Marketing & Design

IN Food Marketing & Design is an independently owned American marketing communications agency that specializes in food-related companies.

Formerly known as Vavricka Juntti & Company, the business was founded in early 1995 by Cheryl Vavricka and Anita Juntti in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Early on, the company received the bulk of its business from Pillsbury Bakeries & Foodservice.

In 2004, the company received the Minnesota Business Ethics Award based on their company values and community involvement.

In 2006, Anita Juntti bought Cheryl Vavricka's stake in the company, and in early 2008 the company re-branded to IN Food Marketing & Design. The name was chosen because of the key attributes the company espouses: Integrity, Insights, Involvement, Intelligence and Ingenuity.

IN Food Marketing & Design has continued to work with its initial client now known as General Mills Bakeries & Foodservice and their client base has grown to include other manufacturers serving the food industry such as Indian Harvest Specialtifoods, Fusion Culinary and Ecolab.
