For nearly a century, HWY Partners has helped brands navigate an ever-changing retail landscape through strong relationships, deep market expertise and a relentless focus on execution.
A lot has changed since 1927. The way we do business has evolved with it. What hasn’t changed is how we show up for our clients, our customers and each other.
Relationships aren’t a line in our capabilities deck. They’re how we’ve built our business for nearly 100 years.
We know the retailers. We understand the markets. We stay close to our clients. And we bring those relationships together with data, strategy and execution to help brands find opportunities and turn them into sustainable growth.
Because in this business, who you know matters. What you do with those relationships matters even more.
A century of adapting, evolving and helping brands grow.
Deep market knowledge from Maine to Virginia.
Broader capabilities through our partnership with Consolidated Sales Network.
Experience across grocery, convenience, drug, club, wholesale and beyond.
Our scale gives brands access to experienced teams, established retail relationships, data and resources across the Northeast.
Our culture keeps things personal.
You’ll know your team. You’ll be able to reach them. And you’ll work with people who understand your business and take ownership of the outcome.
That’s not a service model. It’s how we work.
Great brokerage requires more than making the introduction.
We dig into the business. We ask questions. We find opportunities. We solve problems. And when something needs to get done, we roll up our sleeves and get after it.
See the bigger picture and identify where the opportunities are.
Retail moves fast. So do we.
Accountability doesn’t stop when the meeting ends.
To our clients. To our customers. To what’s happening in the market.
We have strategically divided our operations into three sales divisions including: Grocery North, Grocery South, and CSD (Convenience, Specialty, & Dollar). This division of labor allows our team of category experts to tailor their focus and expertise to the specific needs of each market segment.
By organizing our efforts into these distinct sales divisions, we provide our clients with the most effective and personalized service possible. Below is a breakdown of the key retailers we work with across each division.
The Grocery North division is based out of Grimes, IA and includes coverage for: Hy-Vee, Fareway, UNFI, Target, the Colorado & Wisconsin Grocery Markets, and MYA’s Distribution Division (including Pantryful.com).
