Bush honored Monday in Palm Springs; P-G story has more on standout career

We told you here last month that Bob Bush, chairman emeritus of Schreiber Foods, Inc., and longtime member of the University Council of Trustees (he’s now emeritus), has been named the recipient of the 2014 National Cheese Institute’s Laureate Award. The Green Bay Press-Gazette recently ran a story on the honor, which Bush will accept today (Monday, Jan. 27) in Palm Springs, Calif. (where, by the by, the forecast high for today is 81 degrees. Sorry, couldn’t help ourselves). A widely respected businessman, Bush started with Schreiber in 1946, and helped revolutionize the industry with his engineering and technical expertise. During his tenure with the company, Schreiber Foods grew from one plant and $12 million in sales to 19 plants with $1.5 billion in sales. Full story.
