As part of Minnesota’s Shop Local initiative, Amplio’s new CEO, Brian McDonald, and loan officer, Andy Clausen, recently joined lending partners Kim Storey and Angie Trocke from Highland Bank on a visit to Sift Gluten Free, a bakery in Minneapolis, MN.
Sift Gluten Free started at Minneapolis-area farmers’ markets in 2013 and expanded to a storefront in 2017. They utilized Amplio’s SBA 504 program in concert with financing from Highland Bank to purchase their building. They now employ over 15 staff members, making artisan, gluten-free baked goods both at their retail setting and for wholesale distribution. One of Sift Gluten Free’s most popular products is their double chocolate donut. You can learn more about Sift Gluten Free at siftglutenfree.com.
