Door to Door Organics Appoints Mike Demko CEO

Door to Door Organics, a Louisville, Colo.-based meal-planning and natural and organic grocery delivery service, has named Mike Demko its new CEO. An e-commerce veteran with a background in retail technology, Demko has led marketing and operations teams at companies such as FreshDirect and Priceline. In his new role, he will direct the company to its next level of sustainable growth.

He succeeds interim CEO Stefan Pepe, who has been named Door to Door Organics’ chairman of the board. Before joining the company, Demko was COO of GPShopper, a developer of mobile solutions for retailers. While there, he helped scale the business and guide the development of mobile engagement and commerce technologies for retailers that culminated in the acquisition of the business by Synchrony Financial. Demko was also VP of operations for e-grocer FreshDirect and VP of marketing at Priceline.

“Mike has an impressive track record with high-growth companies as a results-driven leader who has a deep understanding of the role of technology within the e-commerce ecosystem,” noted Pepe. “His proven ability to quickly identify, assess and act on market opportunities will greatly benefit Door to Door Organics as we continue to grow our customer base and roll out new offerings that allow us to provide customers with the highest-quality, healthy, local and sustainable food and ingredients and eliminate the stress of cooking healthy meals with incredible recipes and content.”

“In an industry full of inflection points and burnouts, Door to Door Organics has achieved something that few ecommerce companies can claim: scaled, sustainable growth,” said Demko, who, early in his career, was a U.S. Army officer. “Over the last 20 years, Door to Door Organics has built a large, loyal customer base by sticking to its core values of delivering fresh, natural and organic food, powered by topnotch customer service and innovative technology. As the online grocery industry continues to evolve, I look forward to leading the company through a new era of growth as we double-down on these values and capitalize on new opportunities.”

Door to Door Organics delivers directly to homes and businesses in 17 states throughout the West, Midwest and East Coast, and in Washington, D.C. The company, which merged with Relay Foods last year, is a certified B Corporation, which requires high standards for social, environmental and corporate responsibility.
