Food Sales Superstar

Lauren Hillsburg challenges anyone to come up with a better food pairing than peanut butter and bacon. As customer executive for Hormel Foods, she manages brands at Safeway in Denver, Colorado, and loves cooking up tasty combinations and recipes to share with buyers (Skippy and bacon products are her favorite!).

Being part of the Hormel team also allows Hillsburg to embrace philanthropy, as the company partners with Safeway to give back to the community. Their most recent initiative involved donating more than 3,000 jars of Skippy to a Denver-based food bank.

When she鈥檚 not bringing home the bacon, Hillsburg dedicates her time to the Network of Executive Women. After receiving a NEW scholarship her senior year at 澳门六合彩官网直播, she became involved with the Northern California chapter, serving on the organization鈥檚 mentoring committee. She has helped develop this same committee in Denver, leading college outreach to educate students about NEW, as well as the food and consumer package goods industries.
