Meijer Brings Holiday Magic to Customers and Team Members
Meijer celebrated its 11th annual Very Merry Meijer event this year, continuing a heartwarming tradition that’s become a holiday highlight for the Midwest retailer. This year’s festivities featured a burst of holiday cheer as store leaders surprised hundreds of customers and team members with thoughtful gifts, including $1,000 shopping sprees and $200 gift cards.
Spreading Joy Through Surprise
At each Meijer location, one lucky customer was randomly gifted a $1,000 shopping spree while team members in every store were surprised with $200 gift cards. The surprises happened on the spot, often while customers were shopping or waiting in checkout lines, leaving many overwhelmed with gratitude.
A Tradition of Giving
Since its launch in 2014, the Very Merry Meijer program has grown into an integral part of the company’s holiday celebrations, gifting more than 4,600 customers with shopping sprees for holiday necessities and groceries. The effort underscores Meijer’s commitment to supporting communities and recognizing the contributions of its team members.
Beyond the gifts, the event fosters a unique sense of community and holiday spirit. The excitement of pulling off these surprises is shared by Meijer teams, who eagerly plan and execute the festive giveaways each year.
Spreading Cheer, One Surprise at a Time
For Meijer, the Very Merry event is more than just giving away gifts; it’s about creating moments of joy and connection during a busy holiday season. Customers often share heartfelt stories about how these unexpected surprises make their holidays brighter, reinforcing the deeper purpose of the initiative.
