Business

Bill Fenner desired to be involved in business management within the retail industry from a young age. At the inception of his professional career in 2005, he served Certified Reports, Inc., in Kinderhook, New York, as an assistant project manager for one year. In 2006, he was a part-time store manager at Kirkland’s in Albany, New York, and from 2006 to 2008, he served Russell Stover Candies in Albany as a sales representative. Within two years, Mr. Fenner became a division manager, a position he held until 2010. For the following seven years, he served the candy corporation as a national account manager.

Since 2018, Mr. Fenner has been an associate manager of in-store sales at the Kraft Heinz Company. Looking toward his future with the company, he hopes to continue in the business and eventually become a regional manager within store sales or oversee the department. Noting that he possesses a unique background working on the customer end of the business, he has also dedicated his time to the retail execution end. Mr. Fenner enjoys that he has become a great fit within Kraft Heinz and looks forward to the opportunities that will present themselves in the coming years.

A member of Phi Alpha Theta, Mr. Fenner also volunteers at various soup kitchens in his spare time and has contributed to publications within his fields of interest. Drawing upon a Bachelor of Arts in history from Siena College and Master of Business Administration from the College of Saint Rose, he has been recognized several times for his excellence in the field. Named among the Top 40 Grocery Industry Rising Leaders by The Griffin Report of the Northeast in 2015, Mr. Fenner was also recognized in 40 Under 40.
