Recent Development

Effective March 24, 2020, Governor of Michigan, Gretchen Whitmer issued an executive order to temporarily suspend activities, travel, and business operations that are not necessary to sustain or protect life. This order is in response to the unfortunate spread of COVID-19 in our Michigan communities. Banner-Day is taking precautionary measures to ensure the health and safety of our employees, colleagues, and customers. In brief, these include increased sanitation practices, social distancing, and working remotely. Banner-Day provides service and support to the Bakery, food and process industries.
