Our Team

“You wake up one day and ask, ‘Why am I on this planet?’ I co-created Green Glass Global to start something special. It enables me to provide a portfolio of products for like-minded people to represent while engaging in a life worth living, and provide the opportunity for wine, spirits, or alternative beverages to stand in front of a key buyer and have them say yes or no without all the usual industry clutter of, ‘It can’t be done.’ I love what I do!”- Bob

Why We Attract THE BEST: 

“Every brand has a story. Every time you take a sip, a story is passed on to you. I am here to take the stories of those wines and spirits to the consumers and teach them about why the product they are tasting is so very special and unique.  GGG gives me the tools and support to take those stories and make them into legends.”

- Kari

 

Re-tire, Re-lax, Re-boot, Re-fresh, Re-invigorate! Happiness is a choice and GGG allows me to exercise that choice because of their structure. I have the freedom to live my lifestyle without corporate interference. GGG gives me the ability to create my own vision, schedule, and accounts to successfully execute the goals of our partners.”

- Jim
