A Lot of Bread
Baking company prospers, thanks in part to National Bank of Arizona
By Debra Gelbart
". . . Wood believes the right financial partner can make all the difference in how successfully a business transitions to a higher volume of production. “National Bank of Arizona and our banker, Peter Duran, understand the needs of a small to medium-sized business like ours and they have been instrumental in making sure we have all the resources we need to expand our business.” NB|AZ saves the company as much as $9,000 a year by eliminating checking account fees . . .  “We appreciate NBAZ being there for us as we continue to grow. It’s a great relationship.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWDg7FtLNss

He is now applying his visionary business expertise to this new future-forward venture, returning to his strong roots and passion for real estate development. Mr. Wood has 20 years of experience as a licensed real estate agent in both Utah and Arizona. He has financed, built, and sold over 100 custom, high-end homes as well as owned and leased residential and commercial properties.

Todd Wood
Todd Wood CEO
“Believe. Trust Me. Hang On.” has been Todd Wood’s compass all his life.
Born into a family of 6 children, Todd started working for the family candy business at age 10 for his grandpa whose motto was, “Our family only works 6 days per week, half days. 6am to 6pm.”
In 1995 Todd and his wife Andrea moved to Arizona with their two young daughters and opened a small family business baking all-natural breads. With Todd’s scrappy and tenacious work habits, dedicating six days a week and “half days”, the family business grew through difficulties and challenges. They began baking organic whole grain breads, long before it was mainstream, and the business took off like a rocket ship. Todd encouraged to everyone to “trust and hang on.” Alpine Valley Bread Company soon became one of the largest national and international organic bread manufacturers.
In 2015, Alpine Valley Bread Company was sold.
Todd learned a great lesson after the sale. “If you want to ruin a great marriage, retire and stay home all day with your wife.” After much pondering and prayer, Todd and Andrea again felt inspired to begin a new business providing all “A New Way to Live!”
Christopher Todd Properties is the parent company of Christopher Todd Communities, both of which were launched in 2016.
Christopher Todd Communities develops private luxury single-family rental smart homes, with all the amenities of a master planned community. The company is planning for a national expansion, bringing the Christopher Todd Communities brand coast to coast.
With this real estate venture, Wood is returning to his strong roots and passion for real estate development. He has been participating in all aspects of real estate transactions for over 30 years: from planning, financing, and building to selling and leasing across both residential and commercial marketplaces.
He is a licensed real estate agent fore more than two decades in both Utah and Arizonan. He has financed, built, and sold over 100 custom, high-end homes as well as owned and leased residential and commercial properties in Arizona.
Prior to Alpine Valley Bread, Mr. Wood spent 10 years in executive sales with Xerox Engineering Systems. He received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Business from University of Utah and an MBA from Arizona State University.
