Meet the Team

  • How it all started.

    C.A. Fortune was founded in 1983 and later expanded under current ownership in 2013 to answer the need for a brokerage that could adapt with the changing consumer. In the past eleven years, through organic growth and strategic transactions, we’ve grown to serve clients nationwide across conventional and natural retailers in every channel - and added a suite of capabilities to support our clients at every step of the consumer journey. Our people are located across the country, and always happy to gather at our headquarters in Chicago’s vibrant West Loop.

  • We’ve redefined what a broker should be.

    Our team is defined by passion, energy, hunger and drive. We’re a melting pot of expertise in sales, retail, e-commerce, marketing & advertising, and data & analytics. What these teams have in common is…you. We’re all highly motivated to help you win over customers and consumers.
