MATT SHIMKO

VICE PRESIDENT OF OPERATIONS

I’m Matt, and I wake up every morning with the zeal to keep it real! I have been in food manufacturing in varying roles for almost a decade, with a focus on plant-based products. A potent passion for production of souperior foods gets me up and running every day.

If I’m not steadfast on soup success I’m overcome by my voracity for intramural volleyball. A purveyor of puns, with a devout dedication to the delivery of dad jokes, I spend as much time with my daughter and my dogs as possible.  I’m also the inaugural tournament champion of my local chess club….no big deal.

I’m excited to be a part of the 18 Chestnuts team, and I hope you enjoy our soups as much as we do!
