Midan was born into the meat industry

Michael Uetz gathered cattle and raised quarter horses on his family’s North Dakota ranch. Danette Amstein is the sixth generation to work on her family’s Kansas cattle and grain operation. Both earned agricultural degrees from land-grant schools and met while working for the Beef Checkoff Program. In 2004, they combined Michael’s market research expertise and Danette’s communications prowess to form Midan Marketing — a name derived from “Mi” (Michael) + “Dan” (Danette) — a first-of-its-kind meat marketing firm dedicated to ensuring prosperous futures for their families in the meat industry.
