| Ready Pac Foods announced that Tony Sarsam will serve as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately. The hiring of Sarsam concludes a thorough search process that began earlier this year following the announcement of the retirement of Ready Pac's former CEO, Michael Solomon. Sarsam began his career with the Frito-Lay division at PepsiCo, where he spent twenty years in a diverse career that included senior roles in manufacturing, sales, distribution, finance and strategy. In 2006 he joined Nestle Dreyer’s as the EVP of operations, and shortly thereafter was named EVP of sales and operations. In 2010 Sarsam was tasked with starting up and leading the $4.5B Nestle Direct Store Delivery Company, which he led as President for three years. He is a graduate of Arizona State University and Stanford’s Graduate School of Business. "Tony Sarsam is a highly respected leader with a proven track record of managing world class operations and driving innovative product development,” said Sean
