Event Description


Join us on the 4th Thursday of every month for lunch and networking with fellow NKCBC members, as well as other North Kansas City business owners and representatives, community leaders, and elected officials.  In addition to lunch and networking, you will enjoy a presentation by our featured speaker. 

The North Kansas City Business Council is always seeking ways to recognize and celebrate the achievements of its members and the North Kansas City business community, provide valuable benefits and rewards to our members, and grow and strengthen our organization to be able to provide the highest level of service to our members and the entire NKC community.

Each quarter will feature events, activities, and information related to the specific focus of that quarter, with the highlight being a special luncheon program offered the first month of the quarter. This month will be be focused on Entrepreneurship.
 

One of the most celebrated entrepreneurs in North Kansas City, Joe Roetheli, will be the featured speaker at our April Monthly Membership Luncheon, on April 27th, 2023. Our April luncheon is intended to recognize, honor and inspire current and aspiring entrepreneurs!
 
You will not be disappointed with Joe's presentation! He has a wealth of lessons learned as a struggling - and now a repeat - entrepreneur. Joe and his wife, Judy, created and grew the Greenies dog treat, which was extremely successful and eventually resulted in the acquisition by the Mars Company. They are now moving rapidly forward with another dog treat product called Yummy Combs, with a company they call Pet's Best Life. He presents his story in an interesting and humorous manner. Joe will also share stories of some of the humanitarian projects done through their Lil' Red Foundation.
 
Some of the awards received by Joe and Judy, and their companies include:
  • Mr. K Award
  • 3 years in the Great KC Chamber of Commerce Top 10 Small Businesses
  • Petco Vendor of the Year Award 2004 & 2005
  • National District Export Council's Small Business Exporter of the Year
  • Stevie Award for Best Packaging by a small company
  • Within 10 years, was ranked by the pet industry as the 8th largest pet food/treat company in the world with 2 products
 
Join us at Harrah's in the Windsor Room on April 27th, 2023, to hear more about Joe and Judy Roetheli and their journey to success!
And remember,
 
If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door!
