It is a day to share romantic deeds or expressions. Ten states and parts of two states observe Sweetest Day: Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, Wisconsin, West Virginia, Washington and areas of both New York and Pennsylvania, west of the spine of the Appalachian Mountains. Sweetest Day has also been referred to as a “concocted promotion” created by the candy industry solely to increase sales of sweets. Origin The first Sweetest Day was on October 10, 1921 in Cleveland. The Cleveland Plain Dealer's October 8, 1922 edition, which chronicles the first Sweetest Day in Cleveland, states that the first Sweetest Day was planned by a committee of 12 confectioners chaired by candymaker C. C. Hartzell. The Sweetest Day in the Year Committee distributed over 20,000 boxes of candy to "newsboys, orphans, old folks, and the poor" in Cleveland, Ohio. The Sweetest Day in the Year Committee was assisted in the distribution of candy by some of the biggest movie stars of the day including Theda Bara and Ann Pennington. There were also several attempts to start a "Sweetest Day" in New York City, including a declaration of a Candy Day throughout the United States by candy manufacturers on October 8, 1922. In 1927, The New York Times reported that "the powers that determine the nomenclature of the weeks of October" decreed that the week beginning on October 10, 1927 would be known as Sweetest Week. On September 25, 1937, The New York Times reported under Advertising News and Notes that The National Confectioners Association had launched a "movement throughout the candy industry" to rank Sweetest Day with the nationally accepted Mother's Day, Father's Day, and St. Valentine's Day. In 1940, another Sweetest Day was proclaimed on October 19. The promotional event was marked by the distribution of more than 10,000 boxes of candy by the Sweetest Day Committee. The candy was distributed among 26 local charities. 225 children were given candy in the chapel at the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Children on October 17, 1940. 600 boxes of candy were also delivered to the presidents of the Jewish, Protestant and Catholic Big Sister groups of New York. www.crosset.com Good Selling!!

Western Vegetables AVOCADOS: Organic avocados are extremely tight right now. Prices will remain high until mid-October when the New Mexican crop starts. BROCCOLI: The broccoli market has tightened up in the west.

We are transitioning into Michigan product as it is a strong market with great quality. CAULIFLOWER: Volumes remain steady from the past few weeks. We are starting to see the effects of the heat two weeks ago and yields have begun to drop lightly. Volumes are expected to remain lighter than average for the next four weeks. CELERY: The celery market remains somewhat depressed. Industry is still tight as yields have been affected due to quality issues. Volumes are expected to increase as we move closer to November. GREEN ONIONS: Product continues to be extremely tight as the growing region in Mexico underwent extreme heat followed by hurricane rains which have caused many fields to be submerged in water. LETTUCE: There is a wide range in quality and pricing throughout the industry. The product has been through a lot of different weather patterns which has caused it some stress. With high temperatures followed by humid nights and foggy/wet mornings. Product has been pulling forward with minor quality issues. Value-Added Shortages continue to increase in the Salinas Valley due to the extreme heat. Baby spinach, arugula, spring mix and butter lettuce are some of the items most affected at this time. Expect limited supplies of these items and any salad blend containing them over the next few weeks.

Supplies will be limited for a few more weeks until growers move to lower elevation new fields that should be clean. BROCCOLI: Due to weather issues (heat) in growing regions in the west, we are seeing suppliers limit available supply driving market cost up. There will be discoloration to the tops as heat will cause a darker head on the broccoli. BUNCH CARROTS: Supply is available, though due to high temps, we are seeing discoloration to the tops of the product. CABBAGE: Regional supply has really come on from Ohio and other surrounding areas. Great time for promotion! CAULIFLOWER: Supplies are starting to improve and the quality is good. Market has gradually decreased; high temperatures out west should not affect supply. www.crosset.com Good Selling!!

Product is in great supply and pricing is very promotable. LETTUCES: The inbound quality we are seeing out west is showing russet and leaf mildew. We are sourcing as much from Canada as possible due to better quality. Iceberg lettuce will be a struggle as supply is not meeting good arrival. RADISHES: Supplies are improving with better quality tops. Very little damage now to the tops and they look much cleaner than they have been. YELLOW SQUASH & ZUCCHINI: Supply has been very good out of Ohio on the zucchini with yellow being much more limited. Asparagus Scarce supplies due to the hurricane; should improve over the end of this week and into next week. Looking at better volume and better pricing as we go into October.

New Crop Washington pears are starting; crop outlook is good this year. BLACKBERRIES: Weak quality out of California as recent stretch of extreme heat has caused shortage and quality issues; price firm, as supplies out of Mexico and Guatemala keeping berries in the system.

  • The Story of Sweetest Day Sweetest Day Marketing Ideas
    The Story of Sweetest Day Over 60 years ago, a Cleveland man, believing that the city’s orphans and shut-ins too often felt forgotten and neglected, conceived the idea of showing them that they were remembered by the distribution of small gifts. With the help of his friends and neighbors, he distributed these small remembrances on a Saturday in October. During the years that followed, other Clevelanders began to participate in the celebration ceremony, which came to be called “Sweetest Day.” In time the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the underprivileged was broadened to include everyone and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small remembrance. And soon the idea spread to other cities all over the country. Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy. It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, aged and orphaned, but also friends, relatives and associates whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed. It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning. Because for many people, remembering takes the form of gift-giving, Sweetest Day offers an unusual opportunity for selling all kinds of gift items. Falling midway between Fathers Day in June and Christmas in December, Sweetest Day provides an occasion for the opening of Fall merchandising programs and the promotion of various products, not the least of which is candy and boxed chocolate.
