Smith Brothers Farms Wins 2011 Best Practices Award

Kent, WA, May 19, 2011 --(PR.com)-- The Kent Chamber of Commerce presented Smith Brothers Farms with the Best Practices Award at its annual President’s Gala, held April 30 at the ShoWare Center in Kent, when it presented its Business Leadership Excellence Awards. Smith Brothers Farms was among a select few to be recognized for its exceptional leadership and outstanding contributions to the community. Smith Brothers Farms has been delivering premium dairy and other products, as well as excellent customer service, in the Kent community and the larger Puget Sound region since 1920. More than 300 guests celebrated everything the family business has accomplished, honoring its past, present and future.

“It’s an incredible honor to be recognized for all of our hard work and dedication over the years. We are very thankful to this community for this distinction and for your business and loyalty,” says President Scott Highland, who is married to a third-generation family member of the farm’s founder, Benjamin Smith. “We are passionate about what we do,” he says. “We aim to connect people with a local farming source and provide them with premium products and exceptional service at affordable prices, while enjoying the convenience of doorstep delivery. And you can’t beat the authenticity and friendliness of our milkmen.”

Smith Brothers Farms sources its milk from local farms and uses only the highest grade all-natural, rBST hormone-free milk from healthy cows. It uses the gold-standard method for pasteurization and the most stringent methods to test milk quality, delivering the freshest milk possible, in environmentally friendly packaging, directly to more than 45,000 area porch boxes. Other products it delivers include: eggs, cheese, cream, butter, and other breakfast staples such as bagels and coffee. One customer referred to Smith Brothers Farms as “a local treasure and a modern continuation of the best parts of our past.”
