Skyline Potato


Our History

Skyline Potato Company was founded in 1991 by John B. Smith with the vision of providing marketing and packaging capabilities for Southern Colorado farms. Recognizing the region's rich agricultural potential, John sought to create a company that could offer high-quality potatoes to meet both local and international demand. Over the years, Skyline Potato has become a prominent player in the fresh market potato industry, with a reputation for excellence and innovation. Under Randy Bache’s leadership, our current Chief Operations Officer, the company expanded its reach in 2003 by beginning exports to Mexico, marking the beginning of its successful international operations. Since 2014, Les Alderete has served as the General Manager, overseeing the company’s substantial growth and solidifying its position as a leading force in the potato industry. Under Randy and Les’s leadership, Skyline Potato has experienced explosive growth over the past 25 years, consistently expanding its capabilities and market presence.
