Wegmans Teams With Buffalo Bills on Limited-Edition MVP Cereal

Wegmans Cereal

The Wegmans brand has introduced a limited-time Josh Allen cereal to benefit Oishei Children’s Hospital.

The regional supermarket chainWegmans Food Markets is once again teaming up with a popular Buffalo Bills quarterback to support children in Buffalo, N.Y., and surrounding communities.

Following his first NFL MVP win last season, the grocer is offering limited-time Josh Allen MVP Puffs cereal to benefit Oishei Children’s Hospital, a regional center for comprehensive and state-of-the-art pediatric trauma, surgical and medical care, including neonatal, perinatal and obstetric services. The store-brand cereal will be sold in Wegmans locations in Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, New York’s Southern Tier and Erie, Pa., while supplies last, with $1 from every box sold going to Oishei.

This isn’t the first time that the East Coast grocer and football team have partnered for a good cause. Last year, Buffalo Bills Offensive Lineman Dion Dawkins promoted his Buffalo Shnow Crunch cereal at select Wegmans locations in western New York. A portion of the sales benefited his foundation,Dion’s Dreamers, an organization that supports young men and women in underserved communities, as well as those in a place of mental, financial or physical hardship.

With community-focused initiatives like these, it's no surprise that Wegmans was listed as the top food retailer on People’s2025 Companies That Care list.
