LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (October 31, 2023) -- On Wednesday, December 6, the Little Rock Regional Chamber will hold its 158th Annual Meeting, presented by Saracen Casino Resort. This year’s luncheon keynote speaker will be Scott Ford, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Westrock Coffee Company.

Westrock Coffee is an inspiring testament to the power of determination and hard work. Born in 2010 with their inaugural roasting center in Little Rock, they have since soared to new heights, serving customers across five continents.  Westrock Coffee started with a goal to give back in a way that led to economic change in the lives of the people of Rwanda.  A decade later, Westrock is now a fully integrated coffee enterprise positively impacting over one million members of smallholder farming households worldwide. Before co-founding Westrock, Scott served as President and CEO of Alltel Corporation.

Chamber leadership will also outline and celebrate strategic results accomplished in 2023. It's happening Wednesday, December 6, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Wally Allen Ballroom at the Statehouse Convention Center.
