Jamboree Foods is a locally-owned grocery store, operated by Rob and Cindy Germann.  The Germanns and the Jamboree employees are proud of the store's friendly service, fresh meat and fresh produce.  They keep the shelves well-stocked with a wide variety of products.  One of the benefits of being a small-town grocery store is that they know their customers and strive to please them. 

Rob operates the meat department, while Cindy manages the paperwork side of the operation, as well as produce, grocery, and dairy departments.  Employees in the store are Deb Reinhart, Jill Sorensen, Jalee Everetts, Bryant Harms, Chase Gunderson and Kelli Sorensen.  The store orders from Affiliated Foods warehouse out of Norfolk, NE.

 

History - Rob and Cindy Germann moved to the area in 1996, purchasing the grocery store in Wall Lake, Iowa.  In May 1998 they also purchased the Odebolt Super Value, which had been owned and operated by Dick Hoelscher from 1963 until 1998.  They changed the name to Jamboree Foods and are in their 7th year of business in Odebolt.

 

Home and Family - Rob and Cindy are active on church boards, in Sunday school, and belong to the Chamber of Commerce in both Odebolt and Wall Lake.  Rob is active with the Odebolt Rotary.

The couple's busy lives are kept even busier with their three children.  Tonya lives and works in Carroll, Iowa.  Riley, a high school student at WLVA, is active in football, basketball, and golf.  Musically, he plays trombone and baritone in band and jazz band, and participates in choral groups, musicals, and church choir.  He is also active in speech and LYF.  Molly will be a freshman at WLVA and is active in volleyball, USA Volleyball, basketball, track, softball, and plays piano in jazz band and saxophone in band.
