Zachary Baker
Director of Accounting & Finance
Zachary was appointed Hand Family Companies Controller/Director of Accounting and Finance in April 2018. Zachary is responsible for managing all aspects of the financial statements for Hand Family Companies (TN/KY) and Bounty. In addition, he is responsible for the database team and shared services for Hand Family Companies, including Lakeshore Beverage (Chicago). Zachary says his favorite thing about his job is the impact that it can have on the whole company; “It’s very rewarding to work somewhere where you can make a difference and Hand Family Companies allows that opportunity”.
Prior to joining Hand Family Companies, Zachary worked in manufacturing accounting/finance, so this is his first experience in the beer industry. He attended Murray State University where he received a B.S. with a major in Accounting and a Masters of Business Administration (MBA). He is a licensed CPA.
In his free time, he enjoys spending time with his wife, kids and labs. His hobbies include running and, as of recently, biking; watching LSU Tigers, Chicago White Sox and the Oakland Raiders; and, when he finds time, he enjoys taking his Harley for a ride or just doing anything outdoors.
