Jim Green is often the voice of Kettle Foods, serving as the company spokesperson, community affairs manager and historian. Each day Jim’s team personally responds to dozens of letters, calls and e-mails from people who experience the company’s great tasting products and want to share their raves, suggestions and comments. Green also champions the company’s strong community involvement, overseeing the donation of money, product and time to community organizations. He also serves as the spokesperson for the company’s sustainability efforts, including the use of biodiesel, solar power, and green building. As one of Kettle Foods’ founding employees, Green takes to heart the company’s core values, helping maintain and nurture a caring culture as the company expands around the globe. Born and raised in Salem, Ore., Green was discovered by Kettle Foods’ founder Cameron Healy while working at a local natural food store and was one of a handful of employees that helped perfect the Kettle brand Potato Chip. The rest is Kettle Foods history. A natural food devotee, Green’s favorite Kettle brand flavor is Cheddar Beer Kettle brand Potato Chips. |
