Farmers Cooperative
Farmer’s Cooperative was established back in 1946 by a group of local farmers. “The Cooperative was started because of customer’s specific needs. Our philosophy then and now is to also listen to what our customers need and be willing to adjust to the ever-changing retail environment,” said Todd Lawrence who is the General Manager with Farmer’s Cooperative.
“We feel it is the customer service that makes the difference. We have an experienced staff that can help customers with solutions to their problems.”
That attention to detail and friendliness toward each of their customers is what helps Farmer’s Cooperative continue to strive, even several decades later.
“Farmer’s Cooperative has been in the Suwannee River Valley for over 70 years helping serve our customers and we plan on being here at least another 70 years,” Lawrence said.

2017 Large Business of the Year
Busy Bee
“We put a lot back into the community and it meant a lot for us to win this business of the year,” said Marshall Beck who is the Marketing Director for Busy Bee, a family-owned company that now has 18 locations.
“All the hard work that we put into our locations whether it sits in Live Oak or rather it’s Lake City, we feel the same about all of our locations rather this being the busiest, biggest one or the smallest one, we feel the same way,” he said. “Just being able to represent the community as big business of the year...it’s big for anybody that wins it...being able to give back more this year to the community than what we’ve done in the past I think has been a lot too.”
Throughout the year Busy Bee helps sponsor various town events whether it’s hosting a fall festival or providing snow right here in Florida for Snow on the Square among other activities.
“We give back to the people that give to us and hopefully that’s a little bit behind us winning business of the year for everything we do in the community...that’s a lot of the reason why we’re here is because of the locals. What they give to us throughout the year we want to give something back to them,” Beck said.
