GOT BAG is a Germany-based start-up that developed the world’s first backpack made of Ocean Impact Plastic in 2016. The minimalist, timeless backpack made of an extra durable material is therefore not only particularly sustainable, but also a symbol of the conscious use of natural resources. Its fabric is entirely sourced with the company’s own ocean clean-up program in Indonesia.
The GOT BAG business demonstrates that acting economically and global responsibility do not have to be conflicting goals: The backpacks made of recycled Ocean Impact Plastic provide a holistic approach to solving a global challenge. With the company’s own clean-up program, not only the material required for the backpack production is recycled – also the portion of non-recyclable plastics collected with the approximately 3.5 kg/7.7 lbs of plastic per backpack is fed into suitable recycling solutions and is thus not lost to the raw material cycle.
We needed to act. With our mission, we want to tackle the advancing plastic pollution of our oceans and encourage a more conscious use of natural resources. – Benjamin Mandos, Founder

Kodiak is one of the fastest growing food companies that is disrupting the industry with its better-for-you breakfast and snacking options. Our journey with food began by restoring the tradition of whole grain flapjacks and adding some protein to fuel folks adventures. In the process, we discovered that foods made closer to nature are not only fueling but taste better. So, we set out to inspire wilder, wide-open lives by feeding epic days through real breakfasts. That’s one of the reasons we’re in the scenic Rocky Mountains of Park City, Utah: to live our purpose and be close to nature.
Our mission is to become the most loved, next generation food brand, and we’re well on our way. We’re expanding rapidly as our business continues to grow year-after-year and need to build our team with people that share our passion for the outdoors, bring industry experience, thrive in an entrepreneurial culture, and want to make an impact in the food space. We believe that eating real, good-for-you food, being active outdoors, and preserving nature will restore balance generations before us worked so hard to forge. We embrace the spirit of the Kodiak – a pristine wilderness with a rich ecosystem – and we rely on that spirit of the Kodiak to inspire the work we do, the food we eat, and the way we play.
Our roles feature highly competitive salary, generous benefits, a fun an open culture, all-you-can-eat flapjacks, and a unique set of perks tailored to those who love the outdoors and live the Kodiak Code.
For a list of all our open jobs at Kodiak Cakes, visit our website: http://www.kodiakcakes.com/careers
Take a look at our brand across social media, but be forewarned: you’ll probably want to make flapjacks for breakfast tomorrow.
