Quinn Foods

Quinn Snacks is discontinuing its microwave popcorn SKUs in favor of focusing exclusively on its higher-margin pretzel products.

Quinn, a leading mission driven snack company, announced that it has been certified as a B Corporation (B Corp), furthering the Company’s commitment towards being and doing better in everything they do.  

Gluten-free snack brand Quinn Foods has ended over a year and a half searching elevating chief commercial officer Al Matulis to CEO who has been with the company since 2019.

Since the onset of the pandemic, wellness and better-for-you attributes continue to play a prominent role in eating trends, and the snack set is no exception.

CPG executive Sarah Bird has been appointed interim CEO of Quinn Snacks. The leadership shakeup happened soon after Bird joined the gluten-free snack company as CMO in July.

Across categories, climate-friendly and carbon neutral foods at Expo East showcased a variety of approaches but entrepreneur’s operating in the space all shared a similar sentiment: consumers care about carbon, and food companies should too.

Longtime CPG executive Sarah Bird has joined Quinn Foods as CMO. “The brand is at this incredible place where it can grow,” Bird said of the opportunity.

Pretzel and popcorn brand Quinn announced today that founder and CEO Kristy Lewis has stepped down from her current role and will transition to a new role as Chief Visionary Officer and chairwoman of the board at the company. She will be succeeded by Mike Keown, who most recently was the CEO of sports nutrition brand Honey Stinger.

In this week’s Checkout, Quinn Snacks raises $10 million; Stryve begins trading on the NASDAQ after closing SPAC deal; Foxtrot reveals expansion plans, including adding 50 locations in the next two years; and Target announces the first class of its food & beverage accelerator.

Despite sustainability being a fairly standard aspiration for progressive food and beverage brands, there are times when the implementation of environmentally friendly measures can still be an arduous process. With the launch of the working group Band of Brands, Quinn Snacks founder and CEO Kristy Lewis hopes she can ease some of this burden and help food and beverage companies have a bigger impact on the supply chain.

Ten years after launching, Quinn Snacks has a sweet new partner: The Hershey Company, which announced a minority investment in the snack company last week. Hershey will provide the brand with both strategic advice as well as capital, CEO and founder Kristy Lewis said.

Kirsty Lewis officially has two tweens on her hands — both her son and the snack company named after him, Quinn turn ten this week. With one decade in business under its belt, the company announced today the close of $3 million in funding, in part to help further launch its newest releases, grain-free and gluten-free pretzels.

Quinn Snacks, a Boulder, Colorado-based natural foods company dedicated to producing reimagined, classic snacks with a focus on ingredient transparency, has announced that it has named Al Matulis as the company’s VP of sales.
