BIO:
Galen MacDougall: Personally, I am an avid home-brewer and rock climber, cherishing any opportunity to spend time in nature. Professionally, I’m the V.P. of Sales at Teeccino; my role has been a developing one ever since my mom, Caroline, formulated the product in 1994. While growing up, I helped at many Natural Product Expos (officially selling my first can of Teeccino at age 10) and have watched closely as Teeccino has grown from a kitchen experiment to what is now the #1 selling coffee alternative and premier line of roasted herbal teas. Since graduating from UCLA in 2010, I’m honored to have become an integral part of the company, and love witnessing first-hand the happiness and health Teeccino brings to our customers.

My history with Provender Alliance started at the beginning of my career in 2011 when our sales manager at the time insisted we engage with this special trade group fostering community in our industry. “Community” is an important element of my upbringing and our company culture at Teeccino, and we knew right away these were our people.  Over time Teeccino fell out of connection with Provender until, in 2020, when I attended the virtual conference and reacquaint myself with the organization.  Fortunately, Teeccino had developed (as had I) to a point where we could once again support the Provender community and I’m honored to part of its Board of Directors.
