What does it take for a next-generation leader to honor decades of family legacy while still driving innovation and growth? In this episode, Jim sits down with Marshall Rabil, grandson of the founders and now CEO of Hubs Peanuts, to explore how he’s blending tradition, community impact, and modern leadership inside a 70-year-old family business. Marshall shares how his grandmother’s original blister-fried peanut recipe shaped an entire industry, why core values matter more than ever during a leadership transition, and how intentional partnerships keep Hubs relevant in a fast-changing food landscape. He also reveals the multi-day process his team used to define their purpose, vision, and values… a framework any family business can apply.
