Tyler Struckhoff is the business development manager in charge of national food service distribution. Andrew Hays is business development manager in charge of wholesale meat distribution and the company’s buying group partners. Both previously worked for Pilgrim’s Pride.
“We continue to expand our sales team to better service our customers,” said Kyle Richard, executive vice president of sales and marketing. “Tyler and Andrew have deep roots in protein sales and they are a great asset to our department.”
