Additionally, products will feature the CMN Hospital logo on all YumBees candy and unit dose product packaging.
The YumBees brand offers various hard, gummy and chocolate candy products as well as a variety of favorite name-brand products. The CVP Health brand offers various health products including medicines, ointments, first-aid products and more. Both lines are sold at convenience stores and travel centers throughout the country.
