Matthew A. Saline, President and CEO
Matthew A. Saline

Matthew (Matt) A. Saline is the entrepreneur behind Mambo Sprouts--America's leading natural and organic marketing company. In April 1996, during a visit to a local natural foods store, Saline noticed that there were no in-store promotional programs geared toward the natural and/or organic consumer. Approximately one year later, the lawyer-turned-marketing-guru launched Mambo Sprouts with the concept of applying traditional mass-market product and retail promotional programs to the growing natural and organic market. Saline now manages the large-scale marketing and publishing operation that creates and distributes Mambo Sprouts' quarterly online and offline newsletters, client-branded newsletters and in-store promotional programs. He also runs the company's research arm that turns information gleaned from the promotional programs and MamboTrack, an online survey engine, into actionable consumer insight. And of course, as the company leader, he is also its top salesperson. Saline calls Philadelphia home.
