Sprouts Farmers Market, Inc. (Nasdaq: SFM), one of the largest and fastest growing specialty retailers of fresh, natural and organic food in the United States, today announced the appointment of Curtis Valentine as chief financial officer of the company, effective January 1, 2024. Valentine is currently Sprouts’ senior vice president of finance and will succeed Lawrence (“Chip”) Molloy, who previously announced his intention to retire as chief financial officer at the end of 2023.

“We are delighted to elevate Curtis from our deep bench of finance talent to be our chief financial officer,” said Jack Sinclair, chief executive officer of Sprouts. “Curtis and Chip have worked closely together for the last two years, and I believe there is no one better suited for the role to ensure a seamless transition as we continue to execute on our strategy and deliver value to our shareholders.”

Valentine brings more than 15 years of financial and retail experience to the chief financial officer role, having served as a leader in Sprouts’ financial organization for over eight years. Prior to joining Sprouts, Valentine served in financial management roles across multiple business units for seven years at PetSmart, Inc., the leading pet retailer. He earned a bachelor of science degree from Bowling Green State University and a master of business administration degree from the W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University.

“I’m honored to serve Sprouts as its new chief financial officer,” said Valentine. “I look forward to continuing to work with our executive leadership team, our board of directors, and all of our talented team members in my new role to drive the initiatives that support our strategy. With our strong financial positioning and growth trajectory, I could not be more excited about the future opportunities for all of our stakeholders.”
