College Juniors and Seniors…We’re looking for you!

 

 

Our Story

 

KLN Family Brands is a 3rd generation family-owned business that started in 1964 with its corporate headquarters located in Perham, MN, in the heart of MN lakes country.  Together, our companies manufacture a diverse and expanding range of high-quality human and pet food products.

 

At KLN Family Brands, our vision is that “We are a proud people-first company.  We are successful because of trust-based relationships, and first-rate products for our families and friends.  We better the world by caring for others.  We challenge.  We grow.   We inspire.”  

 

Some companies have to “fudge the story” a little.  Some need the extra “spin” to shine a positive light on themselves.  That’s not who we are at KLN Family Brands, and that’s not what we do.  We tell the story of our brand – our people, the quality & safety of our products, our tradition & trust, our bold innovation, and the way we treat our community & beyond.  We do it in a genuine way because we genuinely believe we’re a pretty amazing company.

 

We’re looking for a Warehouse & Logistics Intern for the summer of 2027 that is serious about a career in food manufacturing, specifically within the confectionary industry.  If you are willing to learn from the best and have a desire to participate in the growth of some of the fastest growing brands in the confectionary industry, you’ve stumbled upon the right job.
