Job Description

Position Description: Dr. Praegers was founded in 1994 with the mission to bring delicious frozen food to everyone. Its not every day that two heart surgeons get into the food business, but over 20 years ago thats exactly what our dads did. Motivated by what they saw in their practice, our parents set out on a mission to encourage sensible eating. They knew ingredients had to be nutritious and simple, that everything had to be delicious, and that their products needed to be super simple to make. While the world has changed since our little family business first got started, our focus remains true to our dads vision, and we work every day to make them proud.
