Nature’s Path Organic Foods, North America's largest independent organic breakfast and snack food company, announces the appointment of Laura S. Chamberlain as Chief Customer Officer (CCO), a newly created executive leadership role that reflects the company’s continued commitment to U.S. growth, deepening customer partnerships, and capitalizing on new market opportunities.
With over 25 years of experience in the consumer goods industry, Laura is a dynamic and results-driven leader known for delivering customer-centric, commercially impactful strategies. In her role at Nature’s Path, she will lead the company’s customer strategy across all U.S. channels, with a focus on expanding household penetration, retail partnerships, and accelerating Nature’s Path’s overall U.S. expansion.
Prior to joining Nature’s Path, Laura served as Chief Customer Officer at Nature’s Way, a heritage vitamin and supplement company. Her career includes leadership and cross-functional roles at globally recognized organizations such as Danone, Bumble Bee, Hershey, Clorox, Johnson & Johnson, Advantage Sales, and Kimberly-Clark. She also co-founded a consulting firm dedicated to supporting start-ups and fostering industry connectivity—an endeavor that showcased her entrepreneurial spirit and deep industry insight.
Laura is widely respected as a holistic, strategic thought leader who builds strong, high-performing teams through servant leadership and a deep commitment to culture. Her approach—centered on consumer insight, operational excellence, marketing optimization, and collaborative brand-building—has consistently delivered measurable, mutually beneficial results.
“As Nature’s Path continues its robust expansion in the United States, we’re proud to welcome Laura to our executive leadership team,” says Arjan Stephens, President of Nature’s Path Organic Foods. “Her deep industry experience, customer-first mindset, and passion for building high-performing teams will be instrumental as we continue spreading our mission with purpose and passion.”
Chamberlain is also committed to mentoring and empowering women in leadership. Her dedication was recently recognized by Mass Market Retailer, which named her one of its 75 Women of Influence—an honor celebrating the most inspiring and impactful female leaders shaping the future of retail.
“Being an advocate and sponsor to talented and driven women through all stages of their careers has always been personal passion,” says Chamberlain. “Championing them to lean-in, reach for more and be that bold voice is inspiring and delivers holistic benefits across all aspects within organizations.”
