About Hippie Snacks
Hippie Snacks founder and president is Ian Walker. They are natural food producers who believe it is their duty to leave the planet in better condition than they found it. They have approximately 35 employees and their newest office dog, Stanley, based in Burnaby, BC, which is on the West Coast of Canada. To begin, they must go back to 1996, when two friends started Skeet & Ike's, a nut butter company, in the early days of natural foods. After working their day jobs, they started by making nut butter at night and selling it at the local market. It was demanded by stores, and voila, a company was established. Let jump ahead to 2008. They had numerous exciting Skeet & Ike's product concepts that were incompatible with the Homestyle branding of a label featuring a man and a dog on the front. Hippie Snacks was born out of their work on an organic line of tortilla chips made from ancient grains, beans, and nuts.
