Business bankers on the assembly line, getting the boxes ready.

The Commercial Banking team packed and delivered 550 boxes of holiday goodies for North Shore Bank business clients last week. The treats inside all came from local businesses who are also our clients.

Contents of the boxes included caramels from Cream City Caramels & Confections in Wauwatosa, sausage and cheese from West Allis Cheese & Sausage Shoppe, popcorn from Milwaukee’s Treat Street Popcorn, cocoa from Hollander Chocolate Co. in Fox Point, beef jerky from O’Leary’s Goods in Green Bay, chocolate pecan pie from Door County’s Sweetie Pies, Evil Ways IPA from Milwaukee’s Eagle Park Beer, and a North Shore Bank frosted cookie from Rocket Baby Bakery in Wauwatosa.

The delicious contents of the holiday boxes.

“Our team worked hard and showed a lot of flexibility to get the boxes packed and delivered to our clients. Some of these businesses are not used to getting orders of this size, so we had to modify the plan to allow them to supply their products for the gift boxes over a two-week period,” said Margaret Capper, SVP commercial banking manager. “It’s so worth it because our clients really appreciate their relationship with North Shore Bank and that we’ll go the extra mile to spread holiday cheer while also promoting our local businesses.”
