Fire destroys Azure Standard Headquarters Facility
DUFUR – The headquarters of Azure Standard, the nation’s premier independent distributor of organic and healthy food, was destroyed by fire overnight. There were no injuries. The cause of the fire is unknown and under investigation. The loss of the facility and the impact on companywide operations is being assessed and expected to be limited
and temporary. No other Azure Standard facilities were affected.
Azure Standard founder and CEO David Stelzer issued the following statement: “While the HQ facility is a total loss, and a few product lines will be affected for the short term, other Azure Standard facilities are operating as close to normal as possible. Most importantly, we are grateful no one was injured. Our dedication to providing the highest quality food and products will continue as always. We ask for your patience and prayers as we take steps to adjust and rebuild. We appreciate our Azure community and the many expressions of support we are receiving and will continue to update our vendors and customers as needed. We expect the impact to be short-term, limited in scope and manageable.”
He also added, “For our customers, three primary product groups are affected due to the destroyed automated liquid pour facility, fruit packing facilities and carob products facilities.” He continued, “Because of this, we will experience out-of-stock status for Azure Market oils, honey and vinegars – basically any Azure Market liquid product – as well as our carob products for the short term. We are not yet at fruit harvest, so no immediate impact will be experienced from the loss of our fruit packing facility. None of the products we distribute for our vendors will be affected,” he concluded.

So we have:
Azure Standard HQ fire
Two major fertilizer plants
A fire that destroyed a potato processing plant
The Walmart distribution center fire
The sitting US president telling the GDP that there will be food shortages
These types of catastrophes simply don’t happen in a vacuum in such short of a period of time. The board is set. The pieces are moving. Plan and act accordingly.
Don’t forget to add in a couple of refinery fires as well.
Oh, and they are talking about increasing ethanol content in gasoline too. Why not do even more damage to older vehicles, as well as drive up grain prices even more as we have a looming global grain shortage.
And an Aluminum Factory and Battery Factory in PA.
Nothing to see here…
I forgot about the battery factory, and I don’t think I heard about the Aluminum producer.
I got this same email last night from Azure Standard.
When I read it to my wife she said there’s too many things happening like this for it to be a coincidence.
700 farms closed in Maine, RR stopped hauling grains to ranches out west and now will not ship all the fertilizer that they agreed to, couple food warehouses burned down in the South, more farmers payed NOT to farm at a record number, freezing temps have stopped wheat and corn planting and orchards in Oregon and Canada in danger of losing their crops.
