News from the Co-op… General Manager moving on.
“Dear BFC Shareholders,
I have unexpected news to share. Lee Bradford, our General Manager for the last 15 months, will be leaving his position at the Co-op at the end of August. As he stated clearly in his communication to Co-op staff he is “not leaving the Co-op because of any concerns, questions, regrets, or challenges.” He has indicated that an unforeseen opportunity emerged, one that he feels most strongly compelled to accept for “both professional and several deeply personal reasons.”
We are grateful for the incredible team building and systems development that Lee has accomplished in his short tenure with the Co-op. We are very sad to see him go, and determined not to lose the ground we’ve gained and the positive culture he has helped to develop over the last year. The Board will be working toward a smooth transition as we identify the best person to take the helm of our much loved Brattleboro Food Co-op. We look forward to your support, your generosity and your positive spirit. Please contact the Board with any questions or concerns (board@bfc.coop)
Watch for the twice-monthly digital Food For Thought as that is where we will keep you apprised of the details as we move forward.
In cooperation!
Jerelyn Wilson
Board President, Brattleboro Food Co-op”
