Ribbon Cutting - Dan-D-Pak



Half a dozen Ambassadors were feted with lunch at the Grand Opening of Dan-D-Pak at 2628 S. Cherry Ave., just off Highway 41 at the corner of Jensen & Cherry. Dan-D-Pak offers a variety of packaged nuts and fruits from the valley, as well as specialty items like granola, an assortment of trail mixes, yogurt pretzels and dried fruits. In short, Dan-D-Pak is a snack food headquarters, both for the traveler passing by on Highways 99 & 41, and for the local who wants to purchase gifts or treats for a special event.

The business is international with headquarters in Vancouver, Canada, and offices located in Hong Kong and other Asian cities. The foray into the Fresno market is the first in California. In each location, the company attempts to use local produce in order to support the farmers and producers in the area. Both wholesale and retail purchases are available in the large packing and shipping warehouse attached to the small retail store at the Cherry Avenue address.

Ambassadors cut the ribbon and enjoyed a lunch of hamburgers, salmon burgers, fried chicken, scrambled eggs and bacon, and drinks. Stop by at your convenience and visit the retail store of Dan-D-Pak.

Fresno Chamber Mixer at Costco Warehouse #31


Costco Warehouse #31 November 17, 2011 Fresno Chamber Mixer

On November 17, 2011 Fresno Chamber Ambassadors and members had a chance to experience the Costco feast located at 4500 W. Shaw Avenue. The event was very well attended. I was so stuffed with the many samples of holiday goodies such as fruit pies, pumpkin pies, pumpkin cheese cake, sandwiches, & more. Don’t forget the Costco hot dogs and pizza. You can order your holiday gifts at the photo shop from photo canvas to greeting cards at a very affordable price. Costco is a one stop shop from food to travel, they have it all. Please come out and get your Costco membership card today to get your Holiday meals.

Contact Danny Mederios at 559 246-1025 for your Costco membership.

Ribbon Cutting - Mayfair Self Storage

The Fresno Chamber Ambassadors attended the ribbon cutting last month for the new Mayfair Self Storage, which opened April 1, 2011 in the historic post war Mayfair area of Fresno. In keeping with their historic surroundings, Mayfair Self Storage is not your average “mini-storage”. They have made every effort to keep the building historically accurate and worked tirelessly to make the neighborhood an attractive place to live, work and visit. Mayfair Self Storage has a history of being many different things. It was once not only part of the shopping center, but a jewelry store, drive-in theater, hamburger joint and real estate office. Now it stands again, in its former “art deco” glory. Even the antique clock on the tower has been restored to look as it once did decades ago.

Mayfair Self Storage commissioned a local artist to paint murals on the walls and landscaped around the property and alleys behind and surrounding the facility to beautify and help make the community feel proud of its history.


Mayfair Self Storage offers everything the “other guys” offer, and so much more. They are centrally located off Freeway 41 and McKinley Avenue, they are open from 6am until 9pm for regular storage and open 24 hours a day for business storage. They offer storage units with electricity for items that need storage and require power and they offer something I’ve never heard of from any storage place…you can use the Mayfair Moving Truck to bring your items in for FREE!!!!! For more information, please call (559) 233-0033 or visit their website http://www.mayfaircenterselfstorage.com/.
I highly recommend using Mayfair Self Storage for your business or personal items. They are locally owned and operated, they truly care about their customers and the community and they secure your property like it was their own.
