Dustin Finkel is the CEO of Awakened Foods and is leading the charge for Ka-Pop! Snacks, Bubba’s Fine Foods, and the Awakened Food Crafters business. You may even recognize him from the episode of Shark Tank he was on.
Not only is Dustin the CEO and founder of Awakened Foods, he has an incredible background with Goldman Sachs, First Data Corporation, Kellogg Food Company, and General Mills Inc. This was then followed by supporting the growth of smaller companies ranging from start-ups to fast-growing enterprises: eLodging Solutions, WhiteWave, and Famous Brands Intl.
Dustin, a health nut and Cross Fit instructor, was looking for an even healthier snack. He began making chips from ancient grains he had in the house, and once his picky 6 year old jumped on board, he knew he was on the right track – and Awakened Food Crafters was born.
