‘A strong foundation for rapid growth’
As CFO, Parkey is responsible for leading financial operations and driving the company’s strategic expansion.
He brings more than 10 years of experience in financial management and strategic growth, having held CFO roles at Amtel, one of the largest operators of T-Mobile retail stores, and Firestone & Robertson Distilling Co., the producers of TX Whiskey and TX Bourbon.
Prior to holding executive roles, Parkey worked in private equity and investment banking, Eden Green said.
Parkey has a proven track record of positioning companies for growth, including executing five add-on acquisitions while at Amtel, growing the company’s store base from 150 to over 300 before guiding it through a merger with the largest legacy Sprint operating partner in 2023.
At Firestone & Robertson, Parkey played a critical role in growing the company until it was successfully acquired by Pernod Ricard in 2019.
At Eden Green, the company said that Parkey will focus on optimizing economic efficiency of its existing greenhouse operations while positioning the company for expansion throughout the country.
