MGP Ingredients has named Terri Roberts its first foodservice sales director to help develop an additional channel for plant-based products. She will focus initially on sales of Proterra Crumbles—a product line made with MGP’s textured pea protein—to the college and university foodservice market.
Roberts brings more than 15 years of food sales experience to the new role. Most recently, she served five years as district manager for Reinhart Foodservice/Performance Foodservice, achieving recognition as District of the Year and Rookie of the Year for fiscal year sales and net account growth.
