Mid-America Merchandising (PPAI 102357, Gold) has been creating and fulfilling corporate brand recognition programs since 1984. The Kansas City-area distributor operates its distribution center inside an inactive underground limestone mine – a natural environment that maintains a steady temperature year-round, eliminating the need for heating and air conditioning and significantly reducing energy consumption. Motion-activated lighting and a pallet-recycling program that supplies a local university's theater department add to the company's sustainability story.

MMI also migrated to a managed service provider for its IT operations, tightening cybersecurity and improving overall efficiency across the business.
