Stacy Peterson founded Connoils in 2007 after the Cargill division where she worked closed, and she remains owner and CEO of the Big Bend nutraceutical oils, oil-powder and softgel shop. First-party copy styles the banner Connoils By Kraft and publishes the HQ and manufacturing site at W230S7115 Guthrie School Road, Big Bend, WI 53103, with phone 1-262-710-0013. The about page says she started after a discussion with her husband Keith and Cargill management, moving from leased certified-food warehouse space through a plant she outgrew and into a green-technology processing facility in Big Bend. Local coverage of the Town of Waukesha-to-Big Bend move identified her as owner and a Big Bend native and said the company would build a production and distribution center on Guthrie School Road; BizTimes's October 11, 2022 Notable Women in Manufacturing citation said she opened the new certified processing facility in 2019. First-party pages say the woman-owned plant is FSMA/HACCP, GMP, FDA-registered, USDA, NOP Organic, Kosher and Halal certified and that the shop sells into 28 countries on six continents. Related banners named in first-party copy include Peterson Plant Products and AbbyChristopher private-label / hemp processing. Named founder, owner and CEO of a single Big Bend-headquartered oils-and-powders manufacturer with a documented 2007 start and a published Guthrie School Road lock makes Peterson the manufacturing principal on this slate. Keith Peterson appears in the founding-story copy. Work email locked from the Apollo-first pass.
