cover story
One-on-one with
Jewel
Hunt
by Ryan Atkinson
J
ewel Hunt's history in the supermarket industry goes back to her
college days. While attending the College of Idaho, in Caldwell, ID,
she began working at a Safeway location to support herself while
taking classes.
Hunt didn't initially consider a career in the industry. In fact, her
coursework at College of Idaho focused on science and journalism. A
military kid, Hunt was born in the Philippines, where her parents met
while her father served in the Navy. She grew up in the Philippines,
Hawaii, Montana and Idaho. Even after she began working at Safeway
in college, she had other career aspirations. But a new path emerged.
"Great people and mentors drew me in to the supermarket industry,"
Hunt says. "I also love food, and since my grandmother taught me how
to bake at an early age, I really enjoyed learning even more baking and
cake decorating skills once I started working at Safeway."
Hunt's new path took her through the University of Utah and an

evolving career with Safeway. Today, she serves as the group vice president of bakery for Albertsons. She's also board chairman for IDDBA,
taking over the position after being elected in October.
Leading up to IDDBA 17, Hunt took a few minutes to answer some questions from instore about the show, her experience in the supermarket
industry, and the industry's future in general.
instore magazine: What goals do you have as board chairman
for IDDBA?
Hunt: My Goals are to support IDDBA's Goals, Mission and Vision,
which includes:
As Chairman, my goals include people and talent development as the
integral success factor in all aspects. There's no better way to connect
people, food and resources than by investing in our future leaders.
My goal is to ensure IDDBA continues to grow and builds successful
connections for people throughout the food and retail industry.
IDDBA is a valued industry resource in talent development with our people
connection, and it offers great research papers as well as scholarships and
mentor grants to help those individuals desiring to improve their education
and expertise. The International Dairy Deli Bakery Association (IDDBA) is
a nonprofit trade association for food retailers, manufacturers, wholesalers,
