Cameron’s Coffee

William Kirkpatrick, CEO of Cameron’s Coffee, is on a mission to democratize specialty coffee.
Over the past 19 years, Bill has led the growth of Cameron’s from a small micro-roastingcompany to a nationally distributed packaged coffee supplier. His company’s coffee ranks as a top 10 brand in grocery stores in several Midwestern cities and is sold in 48 states and Canada.

A Seattle native, Bill began his career in foods at Albertson’s while attending school. Following school, he worked in sales at two large food brokerage companies, including Campbell’s Soup. During his time at Cameron’s, he led the company to become the largest full-service direct store delivery distributor in the upper Midwest. In order to build Cameron’s world-class roaster, the distribution company was sold to Snyder’s of Hanover in 2007. In 2014, Cameron’s was recapitalized through private equity partners.
