Menards

Why do Culver's and Menards seem to be best buddies in Minnesota? This article dives into a quirky trend that's hard to ignore.

I always thought these were just to count how many people came into the store. It turns out there's a lot more to it.

In an effort to protect their team members and customers, Menards is now requiring all guests to wear a mask or a face covering prior to entering their stores. They also have hours set aside for elderly and vulnerable shoppers.

You may not recognize the name 'Ray Szmanda' but you certainly know his voice and face. He was the Menards guy for many years, and helped make that store a household name here in Minnesota.
