25-Year Reflection – Honoring Legacy, Embracing the Future
Reaching our 25-year milestone is not only a business achievement, but also a deeply personal one. From the very beginning, I had the extraordinary privilege of building this company alongside my father, Michael Schoor, my mother, JoLen Schoor, and my sister, Marty. Together, we shared a vision rooted in family values, a passion for delivering quality, and a mission to improve lives. That foundation gave our company its soul and shaped the culture we’ve carried forward every day since.
In recent years, we’ve faced profound loss with the passing of two of our beloved founders—my father, Michael, and my mother, JoLen—as well as our dedicated General Manager, Jack Speer. Their leadership, wisdom, and unwavering belief in what we were building remain with us always. Their legacy lives on in our work, our principles, and in every milestone, we continue to reach.
Our continued growth is a testament to the incredible dedication of our corporate staff and the loyalty of our exceptional team of brokers, who share our passion and understand the purpose behind our products. Their commitment has helped us navigate difficult times and stay true to our mission.
Just as essential to our journey is the unwavering partnership we’ve built with our retailers. Their trust isn’t just appreciated—it’s foundational. Without their belief in our products and purpose, the culture we’ve worked so hard to build would have no outlet, and neither we nor our brokers would have the privilege of doing this meaningful work. We are profoundly grateful for their role in making our vision a reality and for standing with us every step of the way.
As we look ahead, we do so with gratitude for our past, pride in our present, and optimism for the future—carrying forward a legacy of excellence, family, and purpose.
We thank you all for your belief and support of Essential Formulas!
