Blaukat, Bridgford Foods make long-term commitment

CHICAGO, IL. – Bridgford Foods Corporation is proud to announce a long-term partnership with professional bass angler Randy Blaukat. Bridgford Foods will be Blaukat’s title sponsor in which he will run a Bridgford Foods wrapped truck and boat starting in the 2013 season.

Blaukat says that it started when Al Bridgford Jr., read an article online a few months back about how Blaukat was searching for a title sponsor to help in the 2013 season. After a few conversations between the pair, it seemed like a natural fit for both angler and company.

“Randy’s commitment to the sport of fishing and the environment made him the perfect choice to represent our company,” said Allan Bridgford Jr. “Personally, I have been an avid bass angler for 30 years. It is exciting to have watched Randy on the professional circuits and now have a long-term partnership with him.”

“Of all the companies I’ve had the opportunity to work with in my 26 years as a professional angler, none have even come close to Bridgford Foods in terms of professionalism, integrity and quality,” Blaukat added. “All of their products are awesome to pack along on fishing trips or any outdoor-related activity. I’m humbled and honored to be a part of their team.

“Bridgford is a company that is very active and pays so much attention to detail,” said Blaukat. “I am totally pumped about our partnership – by committing to a long-term partnership (5 years) it shows the faith we have in each other. These kinds of deals are extremely rare in this industry and it means a lot for them to put that kind of investment in me.”

Blaukat’s new wrap features some of the Bridgford meat snack products like their salami, summer sausage and Sweet Baby Ray’s Jerky.
