ANTHONY FELLOWS | Chief POP Officer
HipPOPs founder Anthony Fellows has owned, managed and operated food service businesses for more than two decades, including experience with frozen desserts dating back to 1990. In addition to an impressive resume of experience, Fellows’ inspiration for HipPOPs came from his father, who says “If you get up every day and do what you love, it’s not work.”
