“Bob’s role on the Schwan’s team will enable us to drive innovation and recruiting,” said McNair. “He is known throughout the food industry for his ability to connect brands with consumers and ultimately drive revenue growth, and we are looking forward to seeing the company benefit from his brand-building expertise."
