AMERICAN HOP SUPPLY - Key Persons
Mike McCrea is the founder of American Hop Supply. His background includes over 25 years of international business in the agriculture industry. Whether it involved expanding existing markets or opening new ones Mike has traveled extensively throughout 18 different countries. In addition to direct customer contacts Mike's promotional and advertising efforts have included celebrity product endorsements, global trade and consumer media buys, social media promotions and even placement of a billboard in Times Square, NYC.
Marrying into a hop farming family and later moving to Moxee, Washington, Mike began to take a stronger interest in the hop industry. After over a decade of global research in hop sales and countless discussions with local hop producers, Mike began to narrow his agriculture focus exclusively on hop sales and marketing. This led to the founding of American Hop Supply.
"I increasingly found the hop producers, dealers and brewers all enjoy their trade and I admired the innovative efforts involved to produce great new products. It's hard not to be attracted to an industry where everyone truly enjoys doing what they do." - Mike.
