About this listen
Trevor Farnes, former CEO and co-founder of MTN Ops, transformed personal bankruptcy and food insecurity into a 7 million meal mission that has fed children across Utah, America, and Africa. From losing seven franchise stores and facing foreclosure to building one of Utah's fastest-growing companies, Trevor's story reveals how crisis, faith, and unwavering mission can create extraordinary impact.
After experiencing hunger firsthand with his young family—surviving on faith and anonymous grocery deliveries—Trevor discovered that his greatest struggle would become his greatest strength. Today, MTN Ops doesn't just create nutritional products for outdoor enthusiasts; every purchase helps fund Operation Conquer Hunger, proving that profit and purpose aren't just compatible—they're inseparable.What You'll Learn:
- How Trevor and his wife turned complete business failure into the spark for MTN Ops’ success and mission
- Why starting with a $22 donation (our few loaves and fishes) led to feeding nearly 7 million meals worldwide
- How faith-based core values drive decision-making and attract top talent in competitive markets
- Why vulnerability and authentic storytelling create deeper connections with customers and employees
