ELMWOOD PARK, N.J. -- The Food Institute (FI) here has added ex-GMDC exec Roy White to its staff in the position of v.p., sales, and put him in charge of expanding its membership and programming usage.

He was also a partner in a video production company specializing in programming for mass market retailers, wholesalers, and CPG manufacturers. Before that, he served as editor-in-chief of a trade publication for the mass market retail industry.
"Roy White brings a wealth of experience in mass market retailing and CPG manufacturing to the Food Institute," said FI president and c.e.o. Brian Todd in a statement. "We are looking forward to...working with him to expand the reach of FI from our current base."
Added Todd, "We are currently expanding into a bevy of new areas, including Webinars, seminars, and technology-based products that the industry will find pertinent, accurate, and timely, and Roy will assist us greatly in that effort."
