He joins the team at a key point of growth for the company, as Maine Crisp recently secured national distribution deals with KeHE Distributors and United Natural Foods, Inc.; a presence in all New England Whole Foods Markets; and a new manufacturing facility that offers a tenfold increase in production capacity. With this growth, Maine Crisp has the infrastructure and capacity to support McNamara as he develops new relationships with retail, distribution, and hospitality partners.

Karen Getz, Founder and President, Maine Crisp“Read is a great addition to our growing team,” adds Karen Getz, Founder and President. “His experience, professionalism, and enthusiasm will be instrumental to our growth plans. He intuitively understands our customers and market, and as a bonus, he loved the crisps at first bite.”

Congratulations to Read McNamara, Jr. on this new Director role!
