    President and Chief Executive Officer of United Natural Foods, Inc., Steven L. Spinner, was appointed chairman of UNFI’s board of directors, effective following the company’s annual meeting of stockholders in Dec. 2016. Mr. Spinner will succeed Michael S. Funk, the co-founder, former chief executive officer and current chairman of UNFI, who will remain a director.
     
    “Thanks to Steve’s leadership over the last eight years UNFI has undergone a dramatic evolution,” said James P. Heffernan, UNFI’s lead independent director. “On behalf of the board of directors, we have confidence in Steve’s ability to continue to execute upon UNFI’s strategic vision for growth. I would also like to thank Michael for his exemplary leadership of our Board and his continued guidance, input and leadership.”
     
    “I appreciate the Board’s recognition of the company’s success and its confidence in our future,” said Mr. Spinner. “We have accomplished a great deal in building our business and developing an incredibly talented team of people and we believe we are beginning to see the results of our strategic initiatives.”
     
    “After 40 years of being involved with UNFI, I am as excited as ever about our future,” said Mr. Funk. “Steve and I enjoy a great working relationship and I look forward to continuing to work with him as a member of UNFI’s Board.”
     
    Mr. Spinner has served as UNFI’s president and chief executive officer and as a member of the company’s board of directors since Sept. 2008. Over that period, UNFI’s net sales have grown from approximately $3.5 billion in 2009 to nearly $8.5 billion in 2016.
