Gary Kindseth

     On Wednesday December 6 we heard from  Mr. Gary Kindseth of Faribault Foods.  Gary joined us to talk about the history of the company Faribault Foods.
Gary provided the typical history lesson, Faribault Foods was started in 1895 as Faribault Canning and covered various points in history over the past 122 years. Acquisitions and sales and a major expansion project were all covered. 
 
     The majority of the interest in this presentation was about Gary himself, a Faribault resident his entire life, he is a former Mayor of Faribault and served on city counsel. He is known as a savvy business man, and the room genuinely admired him. There were a few questions asked about Faribault Foods, but more about Gary and what will he do in his retirement at the end of the year. Perhaps he will finally have time to join a service group.... we are here for you Gary, and would LOVE to have you.
