MIDAN'S HISTORY

Agricultural roots have shaped the lives and professional endeavors of Midan founders, Michael Uetz and Danette Amstein. With decades of marketing experience and meat industry insight, they joined forces in 2004 to form Midan Marketing. Starting from small offices above a garage and in a basement, today the Midan team is 70 strong – and growing – operating out of Chicago, Ill., and Mooresville, N.C., with additional satellite offices nationwide.
