Jon King
Vice President, Operations
Hays Food Town, Inc.


Jon King serves as Vice President of Operations for Hays, a family-owned independent supermarket chain, with 13 stores in Northeast Arkansas and Southeast Missouri. King’s primary role is oversight of the company’s store operations; however, his experience in this organization has required his involvement in integral projects throughout the company and mastery of a cross disciplinary skill set. Over the past twenty years, he has led his team across many milestones, including launching their first television commercials, social media campaigns, website, online shopping platform and aided in the development of the Hays rewards card and digital coupon programs. King is excited about the progress of the Hays e-commerce operation and their plans to grow it in the future. King is also very involved in his community, serving on the local hospital board and is chairman of the Wynne Economic Development Corporation. He is also a past Rotarian and Paul Harris Fellow recipient. King resides in Wynne, Arkansas with his wife, Ashley, and three children, Caroline, Jack, and Sarah.
