Case Study: Bare Foods achieves higher profits through honest employee feedback with 15Five

Bare Foods - Customer Case Study

Bare Foods, a fast-growing natural snacks company led by CEO Brad Oberwager, needed a reliable way to capture honest, actionable feedback from about 40 employees spread across the US, India, Thailand and the Philippines. The challenge was to surface roadblocks, ideas and wins each week without creating an unmanageable email deluge or leaving employees staring at a blank screen for input.

Bare adopted the 15Five platform to run structured weekly check-ins with pointed questions that prompt obstacles, priorities and ideas. That system produced tangible wins—ideas that improved product design (wider apple chips), early detection of a factory closure, and simple morale boosts like birthday celebrations—leading to clearer priorities, faster problem-solving, higher productivity and measurable improvements to sales and company-wide alignment, all on a scalable feedback platform.
