Dan Proctor, Founder of KECdesign
History
KEC was formed in 2000 by Dan Proctor who realized a more transparent, accountable and data driven process was required to work effectively with chain accounts. He left the Chicagoland area to open KEC in Champaign, IL where a favorable labor market, a geographic distribution hub met the Midwestern work ethic. Today KEC operates three divisions, employs 25 staff and partners with local, regional and national customers.
Our niche is really pretty simple. We partner with foodservice organizations who want to do things right; are passionate quality, driven by efficiencies and open to innovation.
