Simply Kansas

Simply Kansas is a trademark program designed to promote agricultural products grown, raised or produced in Kansas.  The program offers Kansas producers a variety of resources, including:

• Marketing and technical assistance
• Inclusion in the Simply Kansas online product directory
• Permission to use the Simply Kansas logo on packaging and marketing materials
• Educational opportunities designed for business owners and entrepreneurs
• Opportunities to be featured on SimplyKansas.com
• Promotion of your Simply Kansas product at Kansas Department of Commerce events
• Eligibility for the Business Enhancement Grant for marketing and consulting fees
• Receipt of the quarterly Simply Kansas newsletter
• Ability to purchase Simply Kansas point-of-purchase materials
• Opportunity to list company events on the Simply Kansas Calendar of Events
  All Kansas producers can apply for membership in the program, provided at least 75 percent of their item’s ingredients or processes are Kansas-based. Applications will be reviewed by a panel of Simply Kansas judges, and there is a $25 annual membership fee.

Simply Kansas is the result of a year-long research process that included focus groups, survey research and discussions with entrepreneurs and agricultural leaders statewide.  This input drove the creation of the new program and has been incorporated in everything from the mission statement and services to the name and logo.

Simply Kansas replaces the From the Land of Kansas program.  Members of the FLOK program must reapply for membership in Simply Kansas.
