Kevin McAdams is the new president of Schwan’s Consumer Brands
Next we move to Minnesota-based frozen food giant Schwan’s Consumer Brands, the #2 player in the US retail pizza market behind Nestlé with the Freschetta, Red Baron and Tony’s brands; and owner of the Pagoda Express, Edwards and Mrs. Smith’s brands.
Its new president is Kevin McAdams, who will report to The Schwan Food Company CEO Dimitrios Smyrnios.
McAdams - who joined Schwan’s earlier this year as vice president of direct-store delivery and sales execution - replaces Bob Waldron.
Prior to Schwan’s, McAdams most recently served as president and COO at Pabst Brewing Company, and has also held sales and operations roles with Red Bull, Coca-Cola, Frito Lay and The Earthgrains Company.
