Russell Heiman

Director of Category Management, Erewhon

Russell spent nearly 12 years with North America’s largest natural foods distributor.

A spontaneous visit to a food co-op set me on an unexpected path into the world of natural foods—and soon after, I was president of that very co-op.

Captivated by the unique products and stories behind them, I pursued a career in the industry, spending nearly 12 years with North America’s largest natural foods distributor.

Now, as Director of Category Management at Erewhon, I lead product curation and assortment across key categories, working closely with our President to uphold Erewhon’s high standards and unique vision for our shelves.
