Arjan Stephens is propelling the organic movement forward as the Executive VP of Sales and Marketing for Nature�s Path Organic Foods. In his role, Arjan is responsible for leading Nature�s Path�s strategic direction in regards to product development, communications, sales, advertising, social media, and packaging. In addition to the invaluable life-lessons learned from his grandfather, farmer Rupert Stephens, and his parents Arran and Ratana Stephens (founders of Nature�s Path), Arjan holds a Bachelor�s degree in History from Queen�s University and an MBA from the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago. Looking to champion Nature�s Path as a trusted name in quality organic foods, Arjan has led his team through integrated multi-million dollar consumer awareness campaigns, grassroots organic gardening programs, and an expansion into the European market.
Nature�s Path was founded on a passion for creating healthy, delicious breakfast foods, which explains why it�s the number one organic cereal manufacturer in North America. An independent, family-owned business, and a leader in the organics industry since 1985, its brands include Nature's Path�, EnviroKidz�, Optimum� and Flax Plus which are sold in over 40 countries. However, Nature�s Path does more than sell breakfast foods; the company is also following a path to sustainability in order to advance the cause of people and planet. Nature�s Path currently employs 350 people in four facilities who share the founder�s passion for growing healthy, organic food in an eco-conscious way. Committed to social responsibility, in 2010 Nature�s Path donated $1,000,000 in cash and food products to food banks across North America and purchased 2,240 acres of fertile farmland while partnering with local organic farmers on a cooperative crop-share basis. Nature�s Path is also a founding member of the Non-GMO project, and is pleased to announce that their products now bear the Non-GMO Verification seal � the first label to give North American consumers the opportunity to make an informed choice when it comes to purchasing genetically modified foods.
