Moving into the first quarter, Stemilt Growers, a family-owned-and-operated company, looks to delight consumers with Cosmic Crisp, an apple with out of this world flavor and plenty of crunch. “It’s a cross between Honeycrisp and Enterprise apples, which gives it a balanced flavor and texture, and natural resistance to browning when sliced,” said Brianna Shales, marketing director for Stemilt.

Walmart has made a comprehensive brand refresh. The company said its brand identity has evolved to reflect what the retailer offers today, while honoring what has always been special about the one-stop shopping destination. The business has grown to meet the changing needs and wants of its customers, and the company said this updated brand identity will better represent who Walmart is today.
