Staff Spotlight: Chachi Sharp
Chachi Sharp is originally from Chicago, Illinois and moved to east Tennessee nearly four years ago to be closer to friends and family living in this area.Before starting his career at the co-op he had a long span working in fast food and had also been employed as a line cook in several establishments. Chachi also spent several years as a professional furniture mover.
Chachi became part of the Three Rivers Market staff in October 2022 and states, “I find the co-op to be such a nice place to work; the people are friendly and this place gives you a lot of creative freedom when it comes to the Produce Department.”
His work goals are to keep pushing to keep sales high and to bring in more new, fun, creative ways to brighten up the Produce Department. Chachi says that he wants to keep pushing himself to be the best worker he can be and to help the co-op improve in any way he can.
Some of Chachi’s extracurricular interests are video games, reading, fishing, and spending time with friends.
