From Green Beret to Gourmet: Nate Kouhana’s Anthem Snacks Journey - Food Origins Podcast EPISODE 58

Nate Kouhana is a former Green Beret turned entrepreneur. He brings the same discipline, resilience, and commitment to excellence from his military service into the world of premium meat snacks. As the founder of Anthem Snacks, a veteran-owned company, Nate is dedicated to crafting high-quality, protein-packed snacks that fuel adventure and honor the spirit of service.

With a deep love for the outdoors, Nate and his wife made their way to Montana, "The Last Best Place," where they continued to embrace a life of purpose and passion. His journey from the battlefield to the business world is driven by a mission to contribute to what makes America great—the freedom to pursue, the drive to be one’s best, and the commitment to serve with pride. Anthem Snacks proudly donates 10% of profits to veteran and first responder nonprofit organizations and supports American ranchers with beef sticks made with 100% American beef.

Join us as we dive into Nate’s incredible story—his military background, the inspiration behind Anthem Snacks, the challenges of entrepreneurship, and his unwavering dedication to quality, country, and community.
