IAM1266 - CEO Creates a Coffee Company Targeting Outdoor Community
Sunday Jan 30, 2022
Sunday Jan 30, 2022
Zach Frantz is an entrepreneur, sales expert, and the founder of Wildland Coffee. Growing up in San Diego, he enjoyed two things starting from a young age: camping and the idea of being of an entrepreneur. In fact, he started his first business, Cakes By Zach, at age 9. After graduating, Zach further honed his tech and e-commerce skills by working for two software startups in Salt Lake City. While living there, Zach and his wife enjoyed many camping trips but would get fed up trying to make good-tasting coffee with a French press. He knew there had to be a better way to make and enjoy coffee while on the go. As it turns out, there was. In hopes of inspiring more people to get outdoors, Zach launched Wildland Coffee in the spring of 2021. With the brand's innovative Coffee in a Tea Bag, you can easily make tasty coffee wherever you are. His motto in both business and life is 'rising tides should lift all boats, which is why he hopes, above all, to do right by his team, his community, and the environment.
