The Keep It Local Maine Podcast
Business
In this episode, we had a sweet talk with Jeff Buckwalter, the CEO and Co-Owner of The Holy Donut! We talked about how he came to be part of the business, why their donuts are delicious, lobster donuts, how they give back to the community as a company, how he defines success, and much more!
ABOUT OUR GUEST:
Jeff moved to Maine from Illinois as a freshman in high school, growing up in Farmington and attending Mt. Blue High School. He then went to University of Maine in Orono where he met his wife Elizabeth to whom he’s been married to for 21 years. He joined the family business founded by his sister-in-law, Leigh Kellis, in 2013 when they had just one location on Park Avenue in Portland. They now have 3 locations and are building out their newest location in Portland's Old Port with plans to continue to grow the brand. In his down time, he loves spending time outdoors and has a passion for fly fishing, bow hunting and exploring wild places in Maine's north woods.
