We want to take a moment on this and give a heartfelt shout-out to our amazing Green Spoon Sales team.

In the beginning of 2023 we announced that we were making the move to become a 1% for the Planet company, they cheered! When we also announced we were going to be the first company in 1% to require our team to complete a certain number of hours a year volunteering with 1% non-profits, they rallied. We feel strongly that as part of our company mission, we could not make this optional. With the state that our natural environment is in, we NEED to take action! We also felt getting our team out into the woods, on the rivers, and in nature was good for the mind, body, and spirit.

This crew delivered and is going strong! Not only did they have the most hours volunteering in 2023 than any other 1% company, but they built friendships, supported their local communities, and most of all, they made a difference!

Today, we have the honor of contacting the 5 organizations our 200+ team members voted to donate over $100,000.00 to! We are proud to support the important efforts that Save The Waves Coalition, Save the Bee, Just Roots Chicago, Save The Redwoods League and the Wild Salmon Center are doing every single day to fight the good fight!

Thank you, Team Green Spoon, for all you do to support natural products, support our Earth, and support each other!

Happy Earth Day everyone, together we can make a difference! 🌎 💚

We are thrilled to hit another amazing milestone here at Green Spoon with our 200th Team Member joining the crew! Here at Green Spoon we are committed to creating and fostering a supportive, caring, authentic culture where people come first. Our focus is to provide a better quality of life to all team members where they can thrive and prosper! We are so excited for the continued growth of this incredible team! Thank you to all our brand, retail distributor and industry partners for all of your support over the past 12 years! We wouldn’t have made it here without you! Thank you ✨💚✨Here is to another great year ahead, let’s do this 2024!🤘🏻🥂

SPINS and Green Spoon Sales Expand Their Partnership!

Brokers are a vital part of the CPG space, but they’re often overlooked because they are working behind the scenes. SPINS and Green Spoon Sales, a natural food and beverage broker, have a longstanding partnership and share a commitment to bringing natural products to a wider audience.

Brandon Casteel, SPINS’ VP of Partnerships, has had a front-row seat to Green Spoon’s success. “It’s been quite fun to grow together with Green Spoon over the past several years. We are extraordinarily mission-aligned in what we do, and they are an absolute pleasure to work with and a force to be reckoned with in our industry.”

Ben Skeen, VP of Business Intelligence and Innovation for Green Spoons Sales, sat down with SPINS to dive deeper into the often-overlooked value that brokers bring and what this partnership means for brands and retailers.
