Chris Hickey has joined Kalahari Biltong, a meat-based snack brand, as the company’s Chief Executive Officer. In his new role, Hickey will work in tandem with the company’s three co-founders to accelerate the growth of the brand and add value to the already well-established team culture. In this new position, Hickey will leverage his extensive industry background and resources to manage key relationships with stakeholders, retailers and brand partners as the business grows and scales.

Hickey comes to Kalahari Biltong with the experience he gained through previous positions as CEO of No Cow and The Isopure Company, both high-growth and disruptive, private equity-backed health and wellness consumer product companies. During his first three years at The Isopure Company, Hickey was instrumental in doubling the business, resulting in the company’s sale to Glanbia plc, the Ireland-based global performance nutrition and ingredients company. Prior to his CEO experiences, Hickey was the CMO of EXOS, another high-growth, private equity-backed human performance company and held various marketing leadership positions at General Mills, Coors Molson, and Abbott Nutrition. He holds his bachelor’s degree in accounting from Villanova University and his MBA from the Darden School of Business at the University of Virginia.
