Leadership at the Denver-based company, which is a leading manufacturer of fresh, handcrafted, oven-ready appetizers and entrées, said the recognition truly goes to their “CMM family” for their deep-rooted commitment to the bigger cause, which is to help turn home cooks into chefs with simple, fresh, and convenient meals that families will be proud to serve.
“It all really starts with a collective commitment to our company’s core values of ‘Own it, Live it, Make it better,’ ” said Sean Saunders, CFO and Chief Administrative Officer. “That philosophy influences everything we do. We’ve built a culture of respect, shaping team players who are empowered to do the right thing for their fellow employees and for our company’s mission.”

Core to their culture, CMM provides clear career paths and skill-building opportunities so that their employees can advance. CMM rewards their employees’ successes regularly with events and unique incentives like Colorado Rapids soccer tickets, the bona fide favorite sport of the “CMM family.” In addition, the senior executives take extra time out of the workday to thank the team face-to-face, putting on aprons and serving the whole staff lunch and dinner together.
“CMM shows that they care about us every day,” said Lorena Moore, who has worked at CMM for more than a year. “They go above and beyond. I feel proud to go to work every day.”
