Deployments are demanding on soldiers, airmen and their families, especially during the holidays. At the Exchange, we bring a taste of home to our men and women in uniform who are serving our nation, many times in desolate and dangerous locations far from family and friends.
Since 9/11, nearly 4,500 Exchange associates have voluntarily deployed to harsh, austere and war-torn locations. Today, the Exchange operates 11 retail, food and service facilities in Afghanistan, six in Iraq and 13 in Kuwait.
The Exchange is more than just a retailer on posts and bases. We are Family Serving Family — 85 percent of Exchange associates are personally connected to the military. Our workforce consists of veterans, spouses, sons and daughters, nephews and nieces, uncles and aunts, and grandparents of America’s warfighters.
At the Exchange, we recognize that our customers are heroes. Our mission is to support them wherever they serve. Our motto, "We go where you go," is more than a statement; it is a promise to be there when and where we are needed, no matter how desolate, dangerous or difficult the location. We are truly honored to serve those who serve.
We are #FamilyServingFamily! To learn more about our mission and history, go to shopymyexchange.com.
