Employee Spotlight

Meet Ann Roland

Our Employee Spotlight this month is Ann Roland, our produce manager in St. Clair. Ann has
worked with Neiman’s Family Market for over 10 years, joining the team in 2013.
Ann grew up in Warren, Michigan where she wanted to become a veterinarian or physical
therapist. We are lucky she went into the grocery life and produce.

In the category of things to eat, the weirdest thing Ann has eaten is escargot, aka snails in their
shell. If she could eat only one meal every day for the rest of her life she would pick between
Italian and Mexican. Both of those options sound delicious to us!

For arts and literature, Ann’s latest book she has read is The Crash by renowned author Freida
McFadden. Her favorite movies are E.T. and The Wizard of Oz. Who else looks forward to
watching these classics?! We bet most of us love at least one if not both of these movies.
Maybe we should look at having a movie night?!

Ann has an English Black Lab named Nova and one of her hobbies, besides reading, is to work
out by walking her pup. You may be surprised to learn that Ann played baseball and basketball
for 10 years. On the ball field she played short stop and third base and on the court she played
center. The first concert Ann attended was Tom Petty, wonder if he played Free Fallin? The
things Ann cannot live without are her kids and grandson, which tells us a lot about Ann and the value she places on family!

The staff in St. Clair consider themselves lucky to work with Ann because she is a team player
and has a great attitude! If you are in the produce department in St. Clair please stop and say
“Hi” to Ann.

Thanks and appreciation to Ann, all our employees in St. Clair and all Neiman’s Family
Market stores, for your dedication and hard work taking care of our customers as well as helping each other!
