State, city wrap up deal for burrito maker TY RUSHING
Business Journal staff writer
NORTH SIOUX CITY — A Tennessee-based producer of frozen burritos is coming to North Sioux City. Red’s All Natural, announced the expansion after the South Dakota Economic Development Board approved financial assistance for the project through two state economic development programs. “Red’s CEO, Mike Adair, made the right choice to establish production capabilities in South Dakota,” Gov. Dennis Daugaard said in a news release. The news release did not identify how many the company expects to employ in North Sioux City or the total investment in the southeast South Dakota city. The company will locate in the former Sargento Foods warehouse at 813 North Derby Lane, which closed in 2013. Red’s All Natural produces a variety of frozen products, including burritos, bowls, enchiladas and taquitos, some of which are organic, dairy-free and

gluten-free. The company’s products are found in more than 40 retail chains across the country. Adair started Red’s in 2007 after tasting one of his wife’s homemade burritos. The company is named after his rescue dog. “We’ve had a very warm welcome from everyone in South Dakota, and we’ve been impressed with the work ethic of the people and the skill sets they bring to the food industry,” Adair said in the release. “We’ve seen tremendous sales growth over the last several years and we look forward to continue that momentum and get production underway in North Sioux City.” Paige Petersen, executive director of North Sioux City Development Corporation, said Red’s would be a “natural fit” for the metro area’s growing food processing
sector, and would add quality jobs in the region. C h r i s McGowan, president Petersen of The Siouxland Initiative, a regional economic development entity, echoed her sentiments. “The company’s executive management team recognized and identified with the exceptional number of successful food processing companies that call this community home,” McGowan said in the release. “To their credit, state and community leaders recognized that this is an extraordinary company with a unique corporate philosophy that represents an ideal fit for southeast South Dakota.” The state Economic Development Board approved an undisclosed amount of financial assistance to the company through the state’s Revolving Economic Development and Initiative and Reinvestment Payment programs.
Tennessee-based Red’s All Natural is expanding to North Sioux City.

Sioux City CEO recounts recovery from lung disease EARL HORLYK
Business Journal staff writer
SIOUX CITY – A lifelong asthma sufferer, Daniel Pecaut noticed his health took a severe turn for the worse in early 2013. The normally active Sioux Cityan said he ‘d wake up exhausted even after sleeping for 14 hours. While Pecaut walking, he’d easily get winded and had to lie down. Frustrated by his condition, Pecaut went to Rochester, Minnesota’s Mayo Clinic, where doctors diagnosed his condition as bronchiectasis, a chronic condition in which the lung’s airways becomes damaged, making
it hard to clear mucus. A relatively rare condition that may be the result of an infection or pneumonia, bronchiectasis can’t be cured. But prompt treatment can help a person manage the disease. ”The doctors at Mayo had only one piece of advice for me,” Pecaut recalled. “They simply told me ‘don’t get sick.’” Discouraged by the diagnosis and convinced he was dying, Pecaut decided to take control of his health. How did he do this? By enlisting a healing “dream team” that included a traditional medical treatment as well as more homeopathic means. His experience with the disease formed the basis of the book, “Beating Bronchiectasis: How I Went From
Diagnosis to Full Recovery in Just One Year.” Pecaut will sign copies of his book from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturday at Book People, 2923 Hamilton Blvd. The book is also available for purchase at Amazon.com as well as other online retailers. ”I’m an investment adviser, not a doctor,” said Pecaut, the president and CEO of Pecaut and Company. “My book isn’t meant to offer medical advice nor is it meant to be used to diagnose or treat any medical condition. I’m merely sharing my own personal experiences.” Q: When you were at Mayo, it sounds like you were at the end of your rope. What was going through your mind? A: “My immune system had essentially collapsed which left me susceptible
to every type of illness. The bronchiectasis caused all of this mucus to build up in my lungs. Since it had no place to go, the mucus was causing permanent damage to my lungs. My breathing felt more like gurgling. Even though I was in my late 50s at the time, I felt more like a 90-year-old man.” Q: The diagnosis caused you to succumb to depression. How were you able to move beyond that? A: “I went on a sevenday Zen retreat in New York State, where I learned about Renzai Zen (a form of meditation that was popular with the Samurai warrior class in Japan). By meditating, I was able to move beyond the personal grief I was experiencing. It also forced me to concentrate. My diagnosis wasn’t a death sentence that
I was stuck with. Instead, it showed me my recovery would come by mixing modern medicine as well as older, more natural means. Eventually, this included working with a medical concierge and even an acupuncturist.” Q: While it seems like you took an East-meetsWest approach to recovery, you also relied on your business background, right? A: “In business, you’re constantly doing research as well as networking with a wide array of people. That helped me in building a healing dream team. I became a general manager who was executing a plan in which my health became the overall goal. And like in business, I measured my progress every step of the way.” Q: But the proof’s in the
pudding. You returned to Mayo a year after your initial diagnosis. What did your doctors find this time? A: “When my doctors had originally done a CAT scan on my lung, it was completely white. That meant my lungs were inflamed. A year later, there was nothing there. My lungs had no inflammation and there was no damaged tissue.” Q: So, how do you feel nowadays? A: “Not to jinx things, I feel pretty good. My vitality is back and I’m finally able to breathe. I guess the takeaway is that you don’t have to lie down and suffer in the face of a debilitating disease. Your body can heal itself if you’re able to promote a positive environment and lifestyle.”

How aging affects your eyesight When is the last time you had an eye exam by either an ophthalmologist or optometrist? As the eye ages, its lens becomes less flexible, making it harder for you to read at close range. This condition is called presbyopia (prez-bee-OHpee-uh), which comes from the Greek meaning “aging eye.” Nearly all adults experience presbyopia starting around age 40. People with presbyopia often have headaches or strained, tired eyes. Reading glasses usually fix the problem. The American Academy of Ophthalmology encourages adults at midlife to know what vision changes to expect: Eyes suddenly burn or sting and water excessively. This could be a sign of dry eye. For most people, treatment for dry eye is as simple as using over the counter eye drops.

Your eyes need to be protected from too much sunlight. Remember to get out those sunglasses that block ultraviolet (UV) radiation and a hat with a wide brim when you are
outdoors. If you suffer with dry eyes and use artificial tear drops or ointments, remember, no one product works for everyone; you might have to try a few to figure out the one that’s right for you. If you have chronic dry eye, you need to use the drops even when your eyes feel fine, or they won’t stay wet enough. Preservative free is best if you are using artificial tear drops often. As we age there is a lot to stay on top of, but do your best to take charge of your health, eat right, exercise and get to your regular check-ups.

Banking on new market Central Bank to open office in Dakota Dunes BRET HAYWORTH
Business Journal staff writer
DAKOTA DUNES | A bank is readying a summer move into a building under construction in Dakota Dunes that can house other business tenants. NAI United official Nathan Connelly said the Gold Circle 400 Building will be completed shortly and the first business in the facility will be Central Bank, which has many locations throughout Siouxland. The building has three floors and the bank will fill a good chunk of the first floor. Connelly The fullservice bank will include a reception and waiting area, eight offices, a driveup lane, two client service centers, a conference room, safe deposit boxes and more. “The bank will open later this summer, and we are very pleased with the progress of the construction,” assistant Vice President/ Marketing Officer Janelle Holter said. Connelly said the building is modern and will be attractive to businesses. “We shouldn’t have any problems leasing the space out,” Connelly said. “It is a nice Class A office complex. Hopefully, we will get tenants in there by July 1.” Central Bank’s move makes a fourth metro location and first in South
Dakota. Holter said bank officials have been considering Dakota Dunes for several years, but the right opportunity only recently became present. “When the developer first introduced bank officials to the plan for the business park, in particular the (Gold Circle 400) building, they were all in. The development is very impressive and includes a water feature that will serve as a focal point for the park,” Holter said. Holter said bank officials decided to build in the bustling planned community in southeast South Dakota to serve existing metro Sioux City metro customers and to expand the business. “The Sioux City residential and business communities have always been very supportive of the bank. Because of those strong relationships, our customerbase continues to grow throughout the region and the Dakota Dunes community,” Holter said. “The Dunes is a thriving community and we looking forward to serving those who live and work in the area.” Central Bank has assets exceeding $650 million and has three locations in Sioux City and others in Cherokee, Storm Lake and Spirit Lake. There are also banks in central Iowa. There are more than 210 employees combined in the banks, which focus on home loans, trusts and insurance services. The bank dates to 1887, and a growth phase began in 1990 when brothers John, of Spirit Lake, and Tim Brown, of Storm Lake, purchased the bank.

Sioux City bank rolls out hybrid ATM TY RUSHING
Business Journal Staff writer
SIOUX CITY — Heritage Bank is counting on its new hybrid ATM to make customers’ lives easier. The new hybrid automatic teller machine, located at Heritage Bank Morningside branch, 4530 Singing Hills Blvd., provides a combination of old-fashioned customer service mixed with modern technology. Heritage Bank replaced a traditional ATM with this new hybrid model in late October. In addition to performing standard ATM services, the hybrid also provides customers a chance to interact with a bank representative through a live video chat service, similar to using FaceTime or Skype. Dave Brown, Heritage Bank market president, said the financial institution decided to invest in this newer model of ATM as a

Diane Hack, Heritage Bank deposit and implementation specialist, shows off a feature of the new hybrid ATM at Heritage Bank’s Morningside Branch, 4530 Singing Hills Blvd., which allows customers to deposit checks and receive a receipt with a photocopy of the check attached to the bottom.
convenience to customers. “Folks today — and it’s not just banking — they don’t want to come in during traditional banking hours and they don’t necessarily want to come into the branch, especially on a cold day like it is today,” he said. “We have
a drive-up, but the hybrid, for us, is an additional convenience for customers.” The hybrid ATM is available 24 hours a day, and the live customer service feature is available 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday-Friday and 8 a.m. to noon Saturday, which is
longer than Heritage Bank’s lobby and drive-up teller hours. Brown and Diane Hack, a Heritage Bank deposit and implementation specialist, noted the video customer service feature allows customers to access their account even if they don’t have their debit card with them but have proper identification. It also offers potential customers a chance to open an account directly at the ATM or simply seek assistance from a banking professional. “What we see happening is people will start out using the assistance — and we’ll even go out there and show them and help them — but they’ll use the assistance of that teller through the live monitor and then over time they’re comfortable and won’t need that, they’ll just do it themselves without using anybody and always
knowing that if they have a problem or a question that person is right there,” Brown said. Heritage Bank, which has nine branches in Iowa — two in Sioux City — and four in Minnesota, also has rolled out the hybrid ATMs at banks in Alta and Holstein in the Hawkeye state, as well as some branches in the Gopher state. The customer service representatives that interact with all of the hybrid ATM users are currently operating out of the Willmar, Minnesota, branch to ensure the local bank tellers remain effective, Brown noted. “They are taking care of people when they are walking in the door here or when they come to the drive-up, so we don’t want them to have to be distracted by having to take care of somebody at the ATM,” he said. Down the line, Brown said
he can imagine Heritage Bank setting up interactive teller modules at other branches. While the video teller is the stand-out feature of the hybrid ATM, the device also offers a few other conveniences, such as being able to dispense proper change, with dollar bill denominations ranging from $1 to $100. the device also has a photo ID scanner and a touch screen interface. Brown said implementing new technology that customers are comfortable with is something Heritage Bank strives for. Brown and Hack agreed that customer feedback on the hybrid ATM has been positive, something Hack attributes to the device being extremely user-friendly. “It’s easier than going to a self-serve checkout at a grocery store or at like a Target; it’s just that easy,” Hack said.
Family launches pharmaceutical firm Products for humans, pets TY RUSHING
Business Journal staff writer
LE MARS, Iowa — A father and son duo have launched a trio of online pharmaceutical companies to sell a slew of products derived from a germfighting acid. Jay Faber and his father, Wayne, a r e t i r e d Wayne Faber Le Mars veterinarian and animal pharmaceutical salesman, started PureFresh, which provides skin care products for humans; PureFresh for Pets, which sells a breath

freshening product for canines and a hair and skin conditioner suitable for all animals; and Veticus, another line of animal care products that is sold exclusively to veterinarians. The products serve a number of cosmetic and medical purposes, are sold in various sized spray bottles and are dispersed as an aerosol mist. The key ingredient to all of the wares the Fabers offer is a pure version of hypochlorous acid, known as HOCL,
a weak acid that mimics the human body’s response to wounds and infections. “Washington University in Seattle has tested and verified that our product is pure, as did the National Institute of Health,” Jay Faber said. “That is why it is so effective for wound care and skin applications.” The Fabers were inspired to start the firm after meeting with Jeff Williams and Dan Terry, the chief science officer and president and founder, respectively, of Briotech Inc., a Woodinville, Washington-based company that produces the HOCI used to manufacture their product lines. Briotech created its form of HOCI after a seven-year, trial-and-error process, according to its website. The
company produces HOCI through a proprietary practice that involves separating water and specialized salt through the use of electrochemical activation technology. There are at least a dozen other companies that sell similar products using HOCI as the active ingredient, but Jay Faber claims Briotech is the best source for the substance due to its purity. “The effects are greatly enhanced (compared) to all the others, because all the other manufacturers, as they make it, they can’t isolate pure hypochlorous acid — it has some of the sodium hypochlorite, which is bleach, in their product — and over time that degrades or turns the rest of the solution into

bleach,” Faber said. The websites for the Fabers’ companies list numerous uses for the products, which range from clearing up acne in humans to treating pastern dermatitis on horses. Faber understands some people may have doubts about whether these HOCI products are as effective or as diverse as he claims, but
he said numerous studies and personal feedback they have received from customers provide the necessary proof. “We have many pictures and testimonies of very happy people that have used the product,” he said. “People are usually impressed with the results they have and come back to purchase it again.”
