MAD Greens

Marley Hodgson and Dan Long, lifelong friends and chefs, founded Colorado-based MAD Greens in 2004. They were intent on addressing the lack of fresh, fast and healthy fare available to the average American consumer. Back in 2004, MAD Greens was a pioneer of the fast-casual salad category and over the past 12 years, it has grown to be a leader in both the region and the category.

MAD Greens is committed to helping guests 'Eat Better.' This means sourcing local ingredients straight from area farms, bakeries, and dairies. It's the belief that preparing everything in-house and making things from scratch is simply better than any alternative. It is proof positive that tasty and healthy are not mutually exclusive. Most importantly, eating better shouldn't be an uptight or tense experience. After all, you need to eat often so why not make the best of it...smile, laugh, and savor the experience. We want our guests to love the food as much as we love making it.

AC Restaurant Group — a Coors family company — acquired MAD Greens in 2013 with the intention of expanding partnerships with local food suppliers and growing the presence outside of Colorado for the first time. Darden Coors, former counsel for family-owned CoorsTek Inc. and for publicly traded Einstein Noah Restaurant Group Inc., joined the team as CEO.

People are central to our success. We are staffed with people who all know the world can be a lot better. We have more fun and do more for our communities. We believe that a better community starts at the grassroots level and are proud to support local and national causes. In 2015, MAD Greens donated more than $50,000 in cash and in-kind contributions to the Multiple Sclerosis Society's Colorado/Wyoming Chapter, having donated approximately $125,000 throughout the five-year partnership.

If you want to join our MAD community, we are always looking to hire fun, active and ambitious people. Yes we are a little crazy but in surveys, 89% of all MAD Greens employees love our culture. Go to www.MADGreens.com/jobs to see what opportunities we have available.
