About Us: Our Managers

 

Our Managers

 

During the initial start-up period, the only paid positions are those of the recently added Marketing & Communications Manager.

The Marketing & Communications Manager, currently filled by a husband wife team acting as co-managers, is responsible for owner communications, community building within the co-op, event promotion, and media relations.
 

Company Shops Market Managers:
 

Nathan Perry - Co-Manager of Communications & Brand Management

Nathan Perry - Co-Manager of Communications & Brand Management - Company Shops Market Nate Perry, is among the first to volunteer his time for setup, cleanup, and whatever else is needed to help make Company Shops Market Events run smoothly. Nate is also a member of the Burlington Biodiesel coop and is an IT professional with over 12 years of experience in problem solving and systems integration.

 

 

Sarah Cook - Co-Manager of Communications & Brand Management

Sarah Cook - Co-Manager of Communications & Brand Management - Company Shops Market Sarah Cook is the woman behind the Company Shops Market website. For that last two years, Sarah has volunteered countless hours keeping the website updated with the latest goings on at the co-op. She has 9 of years experience as a web development professional.

Sarah and her husband, Nate Perry, moved to Graham, NC in the summer of 2004 after living in the Atlanta metro area for several years. "Lured by Weaver Street Market and the small town community feel, we initially started looking for a place in Carrboro. When we had little luck finding the right house in our preferred price range, our Realtor suggested taking a look at Graham. And I'm so glad we did! We love the community but really miss having a local co-op grocery store nearby."

In May of 2006, Sarah met founding board member, Eric Henry, at the Haw River Festival. "I was thrilled to find a growing group of people and businesses in Alamance County who are interested in building local community, supporting local agriculture and local economy, promoting sustainability and who see the merits of environmental and social responsibility. I was very excited when Eric told me about the plan for Company Shops Market and asked if I would be interested in volunteering website design services."

With the launch of the CSM Investment initiative, the Board felt it was time to take public image, brand awareness, and web communications to the next level. "In August of 2009, after 2.5 years of (mostly) joyfully volunteering my time to keep the Company Shops website up-to-date, Sharon Dent approached Nathan and I with the idea for this position."

"If you've attended any of the co-op events, you've likely seen us around. If we haven't actually met, we hope to meet you at future get-togethers! We are long-time supporters of the co-op, all the way back to March of 2007, right about the time founding members of the would-be coop decided “Let Do This!” We're excited about the opportunity to do even more to establish a great community cornerstone that offers healthy and delicious products from our own backyard." -Sarah

Sarah is the owner of Think Web Solutions, a local website development company.
