Market Testimonials

I have purchased Opportunity Buys® from National Food Group for approximately six years and the products, prices, and service have always been top-notch. I am a FSD for Minnesota DOC and the Opportunity Buys® have really increased the quality of food I can serve offenders while still saving the state of Minnesota some money.
