of your favorite stories Founded in the southwestern Minnesota city 72 years ago with an initial run of ice cream the company — known as Schwan’s Home Delivery until 2022 — was a pioneer in the frozen food home delivery industry Its fleet of yellow trucks fanned out across the country delivering food to families where they lived However the company says economic and market forces led to a sell-off of a major chunk of the business to a Korean company a few years ago and a rebranding as Yelloh Yet, challenges remained — the company closed 90 delivery centers and laid off about 750 employees last

with “heavy hearts” the company had made the difficult decision to end operations “I am deeply grateful for our employees’ tireless and bold efforts It has been our utmost pleasure and honor to serve our customers their favorite meals and frozen treats” he said longtime board member Michael Ziebell said the concern now was for the impact on employees “The current Yelloh team has worked hard against external headwinds such as the nationwide staffing challenges and crushing food supply chain disruption caused by the pandemic,” Ziebell said “Digital shopping has replaced the personal at-the-door customer interaction that was the hallmark of the company.” The Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development reported the closure of Yelloh will affect 176 employees in Minnesota MPR News reached out to the city of Marshall for comment Yelloh — the former Schwan’s home delivery business — is separate from Schwan’s Company The home delivery business was split off in 2019 when new majority owners took over Schwan’s Company the Boston College Arts Council hosted pianists Liudmila Georgievskaya and Thomas Schwan for a musical showcase titled “Elegies and Visions: A Musical Journey.” And a journey leaving audience members moved and enthralled at the recitation of “Fantasy in F minor,” “Ma mère l’Oye,” and “Mysterium Doloris Quintae.” The husband-and-wife duo breathed life into their pieces turning the inanimate piano into a medium for storytelling Georgievskaya and Schwan aimed to reawaken the Baroque era with their first medley The pianists enchanted the crowd with quintessential fairytale stories in their second serenade and they sealed the night with the musical chronicle of the crucifixion of Christ.  Georgievskaya and Schwan were able to evoke emotions few are able to replicate.  creating a seamless recitation with no discernible flaws from the attentive nature of their facial expressions alone it was clear to all that the performers were not merely entertainers but practiced professionals dedicated to their craft The instrumentation of the night was indeed something to marvel over Having two pianists play interconnectedly allowed for a greater breadth of the 88 keys to be covered adding depth and nuances to the iterations that otherwise would not have been possible playing the higher octaves and the more outwardly facing melody.  being an attentive keeper to the lower range and accompanying Georgievskaya when the music dictated His darkly toned harmonies brought vivacious dynamism into the night Schwan and Georgievskaya made one piano into a symphony which is no small feat for even the most experienced headliners complete with concerts spanning the Americas and Europe It’s no surprise that Georgievskaya’s performance was pure excellence given that she’s a published musician sponsored by Odradek Records and an alumnus of many distinguished universities.  Her musical counterpart was just as polished during his melodic interchanges complete with a European tour and a position as a Joaquín Achúcarro Foundation Legacy Pianist.  the demonstration of talent was magnanimous Gasson Hall provided the pianists with a classical background that aligned perfectly with the neoclassical sound Georgievskaya and Schwann produced not a soul was left unenchanted on the gloomy Sunday evening.  NEWS SPORTS ARTS MAGAZINE

take a rebrand too far and you could lose everything That’s especially true for long-running brands which stand to lose valuable brand equity if they jettison too many assets Just ask the frozen food delivery service previously known as Schwan’s which made its last delivery this past week But it faced headwinds as a new generation of consumers began ordering food on delivery apps Schwan’s sold portions of its business to South Korean company CJ CheilJedang but family members retained the part of its business called Schwan’s Home Delivery which was eventually renamed to Yelloh and underwent a total rebrand more contemporary sans-serif logo in an effort to compete visually in the crowded landscape of Instacart and Uber Eats vice president of e-commerce and data analytics for Yelloh tells Fast Company the rebrand “embodied the warmth of its iconic yellow delivery vehicles and the familiar greeting that reflected the company’s optimistic spirit.” But the newly named company couldn’t find its footing Yelloh announced it was shutting down due to changes in consumer habits and the supply chain struggles it had faced since the start of the pandemic Losing access to trusted brand assets didn’t seem to help but Yelloh now offers its customers products through a partnership with Omaha Steaks a family-owned company that goes back five generations and sells a wide assortment of

awareness and esteem and we make brand advancements very carefully and always with our customers at the table,” Todd Simon incremental brand changes are key to ensuring that customers won’t be confused or left behind—a benefit Yelloh didn’t have when it came to losing its old name But other brands can still learn a lesson about the risks of rebrands that could alienate even loyal customers “When you lose touch with the consumer who made you then they’re going to show you with their wallets,” says Mark Christou “What I’d advise brands not to do is to try and change too much all at once don’t change your business model all in the same go and hope that they all work out,” Christou says “I think there has to be a very calculated business decision on when you rebrand and how you rebrand and why you’re rebranding.” 2024: This story was updated to reflect Schwan’s is still in business and sells branded food in retail stores and through the food-service industry The final deadline for

Schwan's Home Delivery rebranded to Yelloh in 2022The Minnesota-based company began as Schwan's Home Delivery in 1952 eventually growing to regularly provide frozen meals to thousands of households across almost every U.S state from a fleet of iconic yellow trucks The company rebranded to Yelloh in 2022 but stuck to its tagline of being the "original frozen food company." Yelloh currently employs about 1,100 employees nationwide "Our concern is now for our employees and caring for them," Ziebell said in a statement The last day products may be purchased via Yelloh trucks will be Friday "It’s with heavy hearts that we made the difficult decision to cease operations of Yelloh," CEO Bernardo Santana said in a press statement “We are thankful to our many loyal customers and hard-working employees for everything they have done to support us." The food delivery business with the iconic yellow trucks “has regrettably run its life cycle,” says one board member The Schwan’s name lives on in frozen foods after a South Korean company bought that part of the business in 2019 Many Minnesotans remember seeing the yellow Schwan’s trucks driving through their neighborhood to deliver ice cream and steaks door-to-door service in an era long before Instacart and Amazon The Minnesota-born food delivery company with the famed refrigerated trucks will shut its doors in November after 72 years in business Yelloh has closed delivery depots around the country and laid off hundreds through the past year but said it still faces “insurmountable business challenges” that have forced its closure “The current Yelloh team has worked hard against external headwinds such as the nationwide staffing challenges and crushing food supply chain disruption caused by the pandemic,” Board Member Michael Ziebell said in a prepared statement The Schwan’s name lives on through its frozen foods after a South Korean company bought that part of the business for $1.8 billion in 2019. But the Bloomington-based delivery segment the Schwan family continued as the rebranded Yelloh will soon become part of bygone state lore, much like Camp Snoopy. Part of Yelloh’s ultimate downfall was its association with the past. The company failed to change with shoppers’ habits. Much like the milkman gave way to buying gallon jugs in grocery stores, the rise of on-demand home delivery through apps like DoorDash and Shipt rendered the route-based delivery model obsolete. “Digital shopping has replaced the personal, at-the-door customer interaction that was the hallmark of the company,” Ziebell said. Nearly 20% of Americans bought groceries online in 2022, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, a substantial set of potential customers Yelloh failed to win. “Our concern is now for our employees and caring for them as we all come to terms with the fact that this business — that served millions of families and provided a livelihood for thousands over the decades — has regrettably run its life cycle,” Ziebell said. In Minnesota, 176 employees will lose their jobs beginning Nov. 22 as locations across the state shut down, according to a state filing. Yelloh has about 1,100 employees nationwide. Last year, the company closed 90 delivery centers and laid off 750 people. It followed up with more closures and layoffs this spring as it shifted to third-party delivery to stay afloat. But the food proved secondary to the experience of having your local driver drop it off, and that market evaporated with every online grocery purchase through a number of other delivery companies and retailers. The first Schwan’s delivery took place March 18, 1952, when 23-year-old Marvin Schwan drove 14 gallons of ice cream to families around Marshall in western Minnesota. The company grew across the country in the following decades and eventually had its yellow trucks delivering to customers from Seattle to Sarasota. Since the birth of e-commerce decades ago, however, the company’s limited offerings available for delivery and relative lack of innovation left it in the shadow of digital competitors. It’s unclear whether the Schwan family wanted to keep the delivery business or if buyer CJ CheilJedang saw it as an unprofitable segment and passed on purchasing it five years ago. Since the acquisition, internationally owned Schwan’s has thrived selling Red Baron and Tony’s pizzas and has plans to build a $500 million plant in South Dakota to make Asian food. The locally anchored delivery business has gone the opposite direction. When it rebranded to Yelloh in 2022, the company left behind the well-known Schwan’s name and found itself continuing in a business already on the decline. “What initially seemed like a fresh start quickly turned into a disaster,” advertising veteran Ken Moskowitz wrote last year. “Yelloh’s messaging lacked clarity, leaving customers perplexed and disconnected from the brand.” Brooks Johnson is a business reporter covering Minnesota’s food industry, agribusinesses and 3M.

roles calling it a very hard and very emotional decision Ziebell said demographic and market issues began plaguing the company in the late 1980s and early ’90s; with fewer people home as drivers came the relationships between drivers and customers that had been built over decades began to diminish which could compete on frozen food price and quality and on top of that regulatory changes added restrictions to their truck operations said Schwan’s Home Delivery was a keystone brand for them growing up in central Iowa Their family got deliveries from 1990 until 2010 and their grandmother “maybe used them even longer.” They enjoyed the “little ice cream sundae cups,” and when Crow experimented with a vegetarian diet in high school their mother “ordered lots of vegetarian foods from Schwan’s when she didn’t know how to feed me.” “I specifically loved the spinach mushroom pizzas after school and dance class,” they said When Crow and their wife moved back to a rural area in the Midwest this spring they considered subscribing but then they learned about the 2022 rebranding “I wasn’t confident that everything would taste the same,” they said The new name erased the nostalgia associated with Schwan’s Crow also noted that part of Yelloh’s draw was its reach The company delivered to areas that were too far from proper grocery stores to get deliveries by other means and that only Amazon would make it out to those places calling the regions “an underserved food desert.” “I think in some cases that would mean someone might go hungry in certain circumstances,” they said The 2022 rebranding was a failure on multiple levels who is the founder of Ad Zombies and has been a marketer for 40 years decision-makers “threw away all that history,” Moskowtiz said Ziebell conceded that the rebranding did indeed hurt the business that by changing the name to Yelloh the company had “lost the heritage of the Schwan’s name.” The Schwan’s name was a part of the transaction with CJ CheilJedang The sale of that part of the business also meant that Yelloh had to find other suppliers for its food The home delivery service carried Schwan’s items until early 2024 but soon enough customers lost access to many of their favorite entrees including the Schwan’s ice cream that had made the company famous “Schwan’s products are extraordinarily good and to find other suppliers that could match that quality was difficult,” Ziebell said Yelloh’s shuttering was largely inevitable a marketing professor at the University of Minnesota Changing consumer behaviors coupled with growing competition which only intensified when the coronavirus pandemic drove shoppers online left the company unable to cope with its attrition rates — the speed at which it must replace customers who leave Yelloh’s delivery and route sales model doesn’t work in 2024 when truck drivers knock on doors but everyone is at work or busy with other things “You should be where the customer is going to be In order for Yelloh to compete with the likes of Instacart Fresh Direct and other food delivery platforms it needed to radically change its business model to try to replicate those companies’ success — a costly gamble that requires deep pockets “It’s a huge dilemma because you have to make the change before you start declining,” he said Having lived in Minnesota for almost 40 years John said Schwan’s was always a part of the landscape the famous yellow trucks dotting roadways all over the region But over time he noticed they had became less relevant a partner at Deloitte Consulting focused on retail and consumer products said that he could not speak directly to what exactly caused Yelloh’s demise but that it’s “very hard to sustain that business in a world where there’s more choice.” Johnson said he’s seen other frozen food companies that operated on a similar model change their practices to fit changing consumer demands Without innovation in both the product and business model a rebrand like the one Yelloh underwent was just a “fresh look or a fresh name for maybe a dusty business.” “This morning I sat down to start working at 8:30 I ordered my Whole Foods delivery and it just arrived three hours later,” Johnson said “It included a couple of frozen pizzas and some other foods and some frozen chicken nuggets for my kids I can’t imagine a world where there is also a frozen food truck delivering to my house.” Ziebell disagreed with the notion that the company had stagnated as it aged adding that it was among the first to launch a retail website The company experimented with different strategies It added health-conscious options and leaned heavily into digital marketing “I don’t think there’s anything else we could have done,” he said a regional vice president for Yelloh who worked for the company for 29 years adding that the company had simply “outran the business model.” “The business model with the equipment that we had was not sustainable,” he said “We took the milkman route and we innovated it better with the home delivery route with frozen food,” he said Instacart have taken it to another level of delivery.” His parents met while working there: As he tells it “freezer guy meets the secretary.” His father who happened to be born on the day the company was founded would go on to work for Schwan’s for over 40 years The Schmidt kids were raised on a diet of home-cooked meals with an added dose of Schwan’s treats Schmidt can still taste the delectable flavors of a bagel dog (a cheese-filled beef frank wrapped in a poppy seed bagel) and feel the burn on the roof of his mouth when its filling would burst out like molten lava Yelloh’s closing was “the loss of an icon,” Schmidt said calling it the “epicenter for community and economic development in southwestern Minnesota.” ordered from Yelloh until they couldn’t anymore Their last delivery came right around Halloween The couple said they stocked up ahead of the company’s closing

coach up the road at Saratoga Springs it's been a lot of fun,” Schwan-Tetreault said big difference in the type of kid your coaching and type of kid you're teaching It's just a matter of finding the

the sideline,” Schwan said and back on the same team with Schwan now serving as a volunteer assistant coach for the program “It's a dream come true for sure,” Schwan said “I love my time here and retired as a Spartan and so I feel blessed that I had the opportunity to return.” “He's a wealth of knowledge and it's really helpful and awesome to be able to go up and say and this during the game?’

volunteer assistant coaching with the Dragons “The retirement part is an opportunity which turned out for me is to have kind of a second career And it's been quite enjoyable,” Schwan said Being on the

Schwan’s is planning a massive Asian food plant in South Dakota as the company pursues its South Korean owner’s vision to be the “No. 1 provider of ethnic cuisine in the United States.” The Bloomington-based company recently bought 142 acres in an industrial park in Sioux Falls where it intends to build a 700,000-square-foot production facility and employ 600 people. When the project was first proposed in 2021, it had a price tag of about $500 million. “Our investment in this world-class Asian-style food plant in South Dakota will help us strengthen our position in one of the fastest-growing food categories in the United States,” Schwan’s CEO Brian Schiegg said in a statement. Schwan’s is also opening a regional office in downtown Sioux Falls that will employ 50 to 100 people. No timeline was given for construction. When open, the plant will turn out Bibigo brand dumplings and other frozen and shelf-stable products. “The ability to continue to scale our portfolio of products to meet the growing consumer demand is vitally important to our strategy,” Minsok Pak, CEO of Schwan’s parent company CJ Foods, said in a news release. “This facility will enable us to further accelerate the growth of K-Food and other Asian cuisines.” South Korea’s CJ CheilJedang in 2019 bought a majority stake in Schwan’s for $1.8 billion. Schwan’s makes Red Baron and Freschetta pizza, Pagoda egg rolls and a number of other products sold at grocery stores and in restaurants, schools and other food service outlets. The Schwan family still owns the home delivery business, now known as Yelloh. The sale price for the land was not disclosed, but at the advertised rate of $4 per square foot it may have cost around $24 million. The project will include a new wastewater treatment facility on site to minimize impacts to existing infrastructure in South Dakota’s largest city. South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem hailed the investment, which she first highlighted in her State of the State Address in 2021, and said Schwan’s “has recognized the superior business climate that the state offers.” Please select what you would like included for printing: Copy the text below and then paste that into your favorite email application two blocks from where she was born at home on Howard Avenue to Joseph and Lena Morice and only one block from where she was baptized at Nativity BVM Church 104 years ago.  She lived an incredible life growing up in the apartment above her parents’ business and she needed only to walk out of her front door to be on the parade route during Mardi Gras Irene loved the water and would walk to the beach in the summers to swim in the Gulf of Mexico Irene would go on to attend Louisiana State University where she graduated in 1942 and go on to become a teacher at Howard No none more than her LSU Tigers football team and she spent many afternoons playing golf at Sunkist Country Club.  please make donations to Nativity BVM Cathedral 2023 from 10:00-11:00 AM at Nativity BVM Cathedral in Biloxi with a service to follow at 11:00 AM Interment will be at Southern Memorial Park Bradford-O’Keefe Funeral Homes is honored to serve the family of Irene Schwan.

Ashley S.P. and Jennifer Zapata see their concept shop as a vehicle for community and an homage to their friendship. Ashley S.P.: You’ve been rocking your signature orange hair since 2016. You can quickly notice the color is everywhere around you. What is it about orange? ASP: It can fade to almost a sunset orange — you’ve mastered an ombre, basically! I can see how orange can be polarizing. The color is prevalent in your design language too — it pops up in your crochets, both big and small. GS: I like that polarizing aspect of it. A lot of the time when I make stuff, it’s not like I have a set idea for colors usually. I just obviously gravitate toward orange, so it’s going to end up in there. ASP: Is your crochet work something that was born of having time on your hands or something more precious, maybe a skill passed down to you? GS: I was bored at home in Washington during COVID and was not into making full-on clothes, so I just watched the same YouTube video on crocheting for hours and learned. ‘No matter what I’m doing, you’ll always know where I’m from, my influences and my culture.’ ASP: When does a crochet feel like it’s done for you? Is there a method, or is it just a feeling, like, “I’m going to sew this final loop and that’s it”? GS: It’s always been a feeling for some reason. I hate when people are like, “I’m a tastemaker,” but I’ve always had this innate sense — I just know when it looks good. If you work in fashion, you kind of have that eye for what works. And [my eye] got better, especially being around a lot of great designers [when I was working] in a store. I think that helped expand my idea of what I wanted clothing to look like, and what it could look like. ASP: It’s the biggest jigsaw puzzle, fitting the pieces together. GS: It’s interesting you say that because crocheting is kind of a puzzle in itself. That’s why I liked it, because I wanted to be making things from scratch, but I didn’t want to be constructing full-on pieces or just sewing. And when I found out how to crochet, it felt like I was building something. It’s a bit freer, because if you mess up a little bit, it’s easy to take apart. It’s easy to add on random bits, it’s just fun. ASP: What keeps you patient in the crochet process? GS: I’ve spent hours of my life in a ballet studio doing the same thing over and over again. So, in that respect, I don’t think about it. If I really want to make something, I will make it. ASP: That discipline is ingrained in you basically, it is transferable. Are you still dancing? ASP: During this time, when you were taking a break, did your fashion interest sort of peak? The city of cement and angels loves some contrast. It loves a little industrial chic. ASP: It’s interesting that you brought up the Virgo perfectionism because when I think of crocheting, I think of you having to make that perfect loop. To me, this is a perfection hobby, and ballet is a perfection sport. How does perfectionism inform your execution of things? Are we striving for that? GS: You’re thinking, what’s wrong with this girl? It’s that thing that’s always in the back of my head. When I was younger, it was bad. I was obsessive, had to be perfect and get perfect grades. Then I went kind of opposite for a while because I needed to just chill out. I wasn’t dancing either. But then I started figuring out a different creative outlet — dance was a good one, but it just got to be a two-edged sword where it’s freeing, but not at all. ASP: I assume there was something rigid and demanding about ballet that made it not freeing anymore. “I don’t want to do what’s cool now because I’m always thinking ahead,” says Schwan. “It’s about using what you see now and what you see in the future.” Schwan wears a Gabrielle Schwan dress. (Fabian Guerrero / For The Times) ASP: “Just going for it” shows up in the fact that you don’t sketch anything before starting on a design too. Artist Jacob Rochester’s portait, a subtle homage to the late Spanto, explores the lens of identity but by way of anonymity. ASP: As a place you keep returning to, how does Los Angeles inspire your colors, your designs, your process? What does L.A. do for you? “L.A. has done a lot for me. The environment in general put me in a place to start this new side of myself,” says Schwan.

spreading the Gospel At the Bethany commencement ceremony on May 16 a 1949 graduate of Bethany Lutheran College was honored with the Distinguished Alumnus Award for his generosity toward the college and his dedication to the work of the Church throughout his life accepted the award on behalf of the Schwan family pointing out that Marvin was very humble and always wanted the focus to be on the One Thing Needful rather than on himself Marvin Schwan showed generosity toward Bethany He began by sending ice cream to the Bethany food service he helped establish the first Reserve Fund which helped Bethany earn North Central Accreditation Schwan helped plan and fund the construction of the Ylvisaker Fine Arts Center Not only did he give gifts to the college during this time but he also challenged his fellow alumni to donate as well Schwan’s generosity toward Bethany is apparent not only in the physical expansion of the campus but also in the way he supported scholarship funds He helped motivate Bethany to work for a broader support base so that the institution could survive into the twenty-first century Schwan funded mission work in countries around the world as well as home missions “Marvin wanted to spread the gospel to people all over the world.” According to Alfred Schwan the most outstanding thing about Marvin—more outstanding than his business accomplishments and

company’s top leadership spot The change in leadership is set for March 2023 Schinecker is currently CEO of the company’s diagnostics division including global head of the diagnostics division’s centralized and point-of-care solutions business who has been Roche CEO since 2014 and with the company since 1993 called Schinecker “a highly qualified successor” who has been a key member of the company’s leadership team and has built its diagnostics division into a global powerhouse “Thomas successfully set up our Diagnostics Division for the future Under his leadership our Diagnostics organization also made considerable contributions in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic,” Schwan said Schinecker said he was honored by the board’s decision to name him as Schwan’s successor “I am delighted to carry on working closely with Roche colleagues and the corporate executive committee I am excited about the future innovations we will bring to patients around the globe,” Schinecker said

As Schwan prepares to take on the role of chairman of the board of directors who decided against seeking re-election to the position Franz has served as chairman since 2014 and has been on the board since 2011 Franz said the company has “achieved many important milestones” but now was the right time for a leadership change “I am proud of the significant contributions Roche has made in fighting the pandemic during the last two and a half years I am also pleased that we could secure long term stability in our shareholder structure with the repurchase of Roche shares from Novartis,” Franz said in a statement “With the strong pipelines of innovative products in both our Pharma and Diagnostic businesses we are set for continued growth in the future.” Roche released its financial results from the first half of 2022 Thursday morning despite the effects of the waning COVID-19 pandemic and an increase in biosimilars The company said it expects sales of both COVID-19 medicines and diagnostics to decrease by approximately $2 billion to $5 billion It also expects biosimilars to decrease sales by about $2.5 billion for the year Schwan said on the conference call that the company has seen “good This is largely due to a 5% increase in sales “We achieved good results in the first half of the year thanks to the continued strong demand for our diagnostics base business and our new medicines to treat haemophilia Thanks to the ongoing renewal of our portfolio whose impact declined further as expected,” Schwan said Roche announced it has stopped five different clinical trials These include the Akt kinase inhibitor ipatasertib (RG7440) in two separate trials one studying its effects in prostate cancer and the other in solid tumors and castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) which was in a Phase II trial for breast cancer Schwan’s positive outlook is largely due to the company’s accomplishments so far this year These include EU approvals of Polivy (first-line treatment for an aggressive form of blood cancer) Lunsumio (follicular lymphoma) and Tecentriq (early-stage lung cancer); an EU marketing authorization application submitted for glofitamab (blood
