Understanding GoMacro's foundation:
In 2003, during her battle with cancer, co-founder Amelia Kirchoff crafted the first MacroBar recipe in her kitchen on the family farm in Wisconsin. Since then, Amelia and her daughter, co-founder Jola, have been advocates for the benefits of a balanced, plant-based lifestyle through GoMacro's nutritious and delicious MacroBars, now available across the nation.
Our operations continue to be driven by the principles established by Jola and Amelia: Live Long, Eat Positive, Give Back, Tread Lightly, and Be Well. We aim to inspire individuals to achieve a healthy body, sharp mind, and bold spirit, believing that engaging in meaningful work is a vital part of this journey.
