About Marcia Ingram

I am an experienced sourcing/product management professional in the Fresh, Grocery, Natural & Specialty Foods industry for both retail and foodservice channels. I'm well experienced in full life cycle of item procurement, category management, and pricing strategy, and really enjoy collaborating cross functionally on new product development/management projects. I enjoy the process as much as the 'treasure hunt' for new items to thrill customers, but mainly crossing the finish line of completion. I'm a strong relationship builder and creative solution designer with the ability to plan the details, flex, find improvements and problem-solve for the best possible outcome.
