Paul J. Orfalea (born November 28, 1947) is an American businessman who founded the copy-chain Kinko's.
[6] In later life he remarked on the subject of his handicaps, "I get bored easily, and that is a great motivator, I think everybody should have dyslexia and ADD.
His first store, which he rented for $100 a month was a small single office space adjacent to a hamburger stand in the Isla Vista neighborhood where the majority of students from UC Santa Barbara resided.
Orfalea's open-for-24-hours policy increased the store's popularity and led to the spread of Kinko's across the United States and internationally, and ultimately to more than 1,200 locations and 23,000 employees in 10 different countries.
Fortune Magazine named Kinko's one of the best places in America to work for three years in a row.
SFI also provides infrastructure and equipment grants to support scratch cooking, along with farm-to-school connections, school gardens, and food literacy programs.
