Welcome Bill Bickford
Alicia Hullinger
Board
President
Please join us in welcoming Bill Bickford,
our new General Manager for Good
Foods Co-op. Bill Bickford brings to
Good Foods Co-op 15 years experience
working his way up from cashier to
Store Manager at Wheatsville Co-op
in Austin, Texas. Bill played a key
role opening a second co-op store at
Wheatsville, so he will be able to apply
his expertise to growing our co-op in a
way that meets our community’s needs.
We are fortunate and delighted to have
Bill join our community!
Bill started on Monday, October 20.
He has been busy training and learning
the systems behind the scenes while
meeting staff, owners, and community
members out front in the store. He will
spend his first few months observing,
listening, and asking lots of questions
so he can better understand our
community. He will incorporate what
he learns into his extensive co-op
knowledge and previous experience in
order to set a direction that aligns with
our shared vision for the future. Sharing
his initial reaction to his first day, Bill
said: “What an awesome community and
organization I’m joining! The welcome
I’ve received has truly been special. I
look forward to many years of growing
together with the co-op and getting
to know this wonderful and vibrant
community.”
