On the heels of several other awards from their franchise chain, the owners of Ben’s Soft Pretzels in the Benton Harbor Arts District have been named ‘Owners of the Year’ for 2024. The honor was bestowed upon Julie and Patrick Weckel recently at the annual Ben’s Soft Pretzels national conference.
The Weckel’s commented on their social media sites:
“We’re honored to be named the 2024 Owner of the Year at the Ben’s Soft Pretzels Conference! We’re grateful for our amazing team, loyal customers, and the entire Ben’s family.
Over the years, we’ve been fortunate to receive awards such as Social Media Award of the Year, Rookie of the Year, Best Mobile Operator of the Year, and Best Food Truck by Reader’s Choice—and now, Owner of the Year! We returned from the conference inspired, motivated, and ready to make this year even better. 🥨❤️”
Many people know Ben’s Soft Pretzels from their highly active food truck, making a stop at numerous events and celebrations, both public and private, around Southwest Michigan.
The Pretzel Truck introduces people to the unique soft pretzel product. Many are then drawn to check out the main location in the Arts District, 136 Territorial rd. Benton Harbor.
