Welcome to the Food for Thought podcast. I’m Andy Hanacek, senior editor of Food Processing magazine. Dave Gardner, who was recently promoted to president and CEO of Ajinomoto Foods North America (AFNA), joins the Food For Thought podcast to discuss what is driving the popularity in Asian foods as well as frozen foods in the U.S. today. Gardner explains how the quality, value and convenience of frozen foods today are meeting demands of consumers, and they are responding positively. In addition, Gardner talks about his approach to his new role at AFNA, what he expects to bring to the table as the president and CEO, and the three points he believes the AFNA team needs to focus on moving forward to continue to grow.
