Specialty Food Association Sets New Leadership for 2026-2027
The Specialty Food Association has finalized its governing board for the 2026-2027 term, electing a slate of industry veterans to steer the $219-billion trade organization. Following a spring vote, the results were confirmed at the association's annual member meeting in New York, ushering in a mix of new and returning leadership.
Beyond the officer appointments, the organization expanded its board with five new directors: Paul Abbott of Millpress Imports, Carolyn Hardy of Hardy Beverages, Jessie Kimsey of Misfits Market, Alejandro Piasecki of Seal the Seasons, and Bill Zappas of European Imports. These directors will serve three-year terms through June 2029, joining a broader roster of continuing board members and 35 newly appointed council and committee volunteers tasked with overseeing membership services, trade shows, and educational initiatives.
