"This new branding signals an important step in our continuing quest to be the preferred supply chain partner in Natural, Specialty and Fresh retail products," stated Barnholt.  "We are embarking on an exciting new phase in our company's journey to make on-trend easy for our suppliers and retail customers. The past few years brought a great deal of change to our industry and KeHE has grown and added products and expertise to meet the needs of today's marketplace.

KeHE's new logo involves a multi-color globe that depicts KeHE's three areas of product expertise – Natural & Organic, Specialty and Fresh.  "KeHE" in its familiar deep blue color remains.
