\nGeneral Mills was founded in 1866. It could be easy for them to dig in their heels and stick to what they\u2019ve always known. Instead, as we rapidly approach the end of 2015 and enter 2016 they\u2019re living out a lyric from an old Girl Scout\u2019s song. It states, \u201cMake new friends but keep the old; some are silver and the other gold.\u201d It appears then that you can teach an old dog new tricks and that you can expand a company without losing what makes it, it.
\nAs we at Dependable Vending look forward to the New Year we\u2019d like to say thank you for another year of doing business together in Southern California, Inland Empire, Los Angeles, Orange County, San Bernardino, and Riverside.
