The North Carolina Peanut Growers Association has had three chief executives since it was formed back in 1953: Joseph “Joe” Sugg, Norfleet “Fleet” Sugg, and Robert R. Sutter. Much has changed in nearly 70 years ago when North Carolina peanut farmers saw the need to form a group to give them a voice. The late Joe Sugg was the first executive director and served from 1953 to 1980. When Joe Sugg retired, his cousin Fleet Sugg was named as executive director and served from 1980 to 1993.
