On this week’s episode of the STL Bucket List Show, we sit down with Chris Hoffmann, CEO of Hoffman Brothers, one of St. Louis’ most respected family-owned companies. Chris shares his personal journey from Kirkwood kid to Marine Corps officer to business leader, opening up about lessons from the military, leadership growth, and what it means to scale a business while staying rooted in values.
We dive into:

- Their $100K tornado relief donation and ongoing community partnerships
- What it’s like building a legacy business with family

Plus, we officially announce our new show This Week in St. Louis, powered by Hoffmann Brothers, dropping every Thursday to spotlight local events, concerts, openings, and hidden gems.
This is a feel-good, purpose-driven conversation that celebrates what makes STL so special.
