Spotlight On Success

Tonya Schneider grew up in the suburbs of Seattle. After college, she traveled around the country to open and manage stores for the apparel and housewares company, Urban Outfitters. A few years later, she decided to slow down the pace and change direction.   

Tonya landed at a wilderness therapy program for at-risk youth in the high desert and hills of Idaho, just north of Gooding. There, she fell in love with Idaho and decided to make it her home. Out of her love for food, Tonya purchased Big Belly Deli in the summer of 2007. Being the sole owner and having no food industry experience provided a challenge she met head on. Tonya has worked hard to create delicious, heartfelt and homemade food for her neighbors, community and visitors alike.
