Biography

Megan Reamer is the co-founder of Jackson’s Honest. As it’s CEO, Megan and her husband started Jackson’s Honest as a way to share both their son Jackson’s story and the delicious sweet potato chips that were a key component of his low-inflammation diet.

Megan is a seasoned C-suite executive and CPG visionary, taking Jackson’s Honest from her kitchen to $10 million in revenue within three years and exiting the business to a PE group six years later. In her role as CEO, she brought to bear a wide breadth of skills across strategy, finance, regulatory, channel, operations, sales, and supply chain management.

She built a management team capable of executing on a national CPG strategy, raised more than $25mmin equity, debt, and working capital, and orchestrated national media coverage across different platforms, including national television, print, radio, and digital channels for a portfolio of 25+ products across three categories of salty snack.

Megan and her husband appeared on the season premiere of Shark Tank in October 2017. They successfully closed a deal with the former CMO of Coca-Cola and venture capitalist Rohan Oza for $1,250,000. In July 2020, they sold a majority stake in Jackson’s Honest to a private equity firm.
