Raisin Rack Natural Food Market received the highly coveted Pinnacle Award presented by the Ohio Grocers Association on Jan. 18. The Pinnacle Award, based on operational excellence and significant contribution to Ohio’s food industry, is given annually to both a small operator and a large operator, according to a press release.

Raisin Rack was founded in 1978 in Canton, Ohio, in the living room of owners Don and Paulette Caster, and now has two locations—one in Canton and one in Westerville, Ohio. The owners pride themselves on providing natural products and healthy food options to consumers, as well as educational events. Both Raisin Rack locations offer organic juice and smoothie bars, as well as organic salad bars that consist of a variety of superfoods and other

“The Caster family and their loyal employees have a long record of serving the communities of Westerville and Canton are most deserving of the Ohio Grocers Associations highest honor,” OGA President and CEO Kristin Mullins stated in the press release.
