5 YEARS AGO today during the COVID-19 pandemic; we finished delivering 50,000,000 meals to American families throughout the United States as part of the USDA Farmers to Families Food Box Program under "Operation: CRE8AMEAL." Out of almost 200 contractors on this project, CRE8AD8 LLC was the ONLY event company selected along with the other tenured food distributors. In the face of scrutiny, false narratives and even death threats; not only did we smash ceilings and disprove media outlets, we outperformed 95%+ of ALL food distributors on the project, proving event professionals can do much more than just plan parties or stuff "tchotchkes" in a bag.
Post project, we've been invited to provide mass emergency feeding solutions for dozens of states, serving millions more meals; as well as mass feeding operations for major events such as the Presidential Inauguration, military efforts and natural disasters. This is in addition to our award-winning event and travel solutions we've provided for almost 20 years, and still continue to grow exponentially!
We want to thank the countless growers, shippers, truck drivers, distribution partners, 2,300+ factory personnel, elected officials, friends, business associates, our San Antonio-based management/warehouse teams; and most importantly our families that supported us during a time when our country needed us the most. Without you all, this massive accomplishment would not have been successful. Without you all, 50,000,000 meals would not have been served. Without you all, American families would have gone hungry.
Our award-winning documentary is now streaming FREE on YouTube and other platforms. See behind the scenes, our struggles, the drama and true story of what really happened and what our small business accomplished when some said it could not be done. Spoiler...it was done!

We pray we never have to return to those times, but we hope Americans know they can count on us if they ever need to.
