Meet Lindsey:
Mom First, CEO Second
If you’ve ever tried getting dinner on the table with a toddler on your hip and a meeting on your mind—Lindsey’s been there.
As a mom of four, she gets how chaotic mealtime can be. That’s why she’s so passionate about what we do at Simek’s.
It’s not just about making delicious, high-quality food (though we love that part). It’s about helping families slow down, sit down, and actually enjoy a few moments together.
Powered by women,
driven by purpose
We’re a team of powerhouse women—moms, grandmas, creatives, and go-getters— building a purpose-driven brand we believe in. We move fast, wear a lot of hats, and always lead with heart.
Family Built, Community Driven
Did you know? As much as we feel like a modern brand, Simek’s actually got its start back in 1972. We were a small, family-run business with a big heart—and that part hasn’t changed.
What started as a local specialty retailer has grown into something bigger, but it’s always been about making good food and giving back.
