May 1, 2024

Kevin's Natural Foods, a nutritious meal company, announced that Roxanne Bernstein has been named CEO to support the brand's continued growth. This transition comes at an exciting time for Kevin's Natural Foods, following its acquisition by Mars and a period of record sales and exponential growth.

Bernstein is a seasoned professional with 20 years of experience in the food and beverage industry and a successful track record in growing brands. Her background includes leadership positions in large and small brands across renowned companies such as Kraft, Kellogg's, and Post. Most recently, Bernstein served as the Executive Vice President and President of ACCO Brands, where she managed a $1B segment. A graduate of West Point and former Army Captain, Bernstein's disciplined yet agile leadership style is set to propel Kevin's Natural Foods towards further growth and success.

"Roxanne's style of leadership and her impressive experience scaling and driving food brands make her the perfect choice to lead Kevin's Natural Foods into the next stage of growth, harnessing the agility, culture and customer obsession the business has thrived on," said Shaid Shah, global president for Mars Food & Nutrition, the business segment within Mars in which Kevin's Natural Foods operates as a standalone business. "Kevin's Natural Foods saw record sales in 2023, growing by 50%, and continued this incredible trajectory in Q1 with the successful launch of its frozen portfolio – thanks to the support of our customers, consumers, and the hard work of our incredible associates. Under Roxanne's leadership Kevin's Natural Foods will remain focused on delivering what consumers and customers expect and want from a disruptive food brand."

After years of dedication and exceptional results, the Kevin's Natural Foods co-founders, Kevin McCray, Dan Costa, and Kelsie Costa, have decided that the strength of the business means now is the time to move on and spend more time on their families. They will stay on through the end of June to ensure a smooth transition.

"I am incredibly proud of what Kevin's Natural Foods has accomplished in only four years, and I can't think of a better person to lead the brand into the future," said McCray. "Roxanne will reinforce the company's culture while continuing to deliver for our customers, drive innovation and reach even more consumers. The future for Kevin's Natural Foods is bright and I look forward to supporting its continued success."

Roxanne will transition into the role of CEO by July 1.
