- KC's View:
- The face, name and voice that the Sheetz family provides for its chain of stores cannot be underestimated. Just a couple of years ago, when there was a salmonella problem connected to tomatoes being used by some of its delis, family members stood up, talked to the media, explained the situation, took responsibility…and managed, in the process, to deal with the problem without any serious erosion of consumer trust and business.
