Tim Tucker has joined Brown & Haley as VP of U.S. sales.

Tucker comes to the Tacoma, Washington-based manufacturer with 30 years of experience in consumer packaged goods, including service with Euro-American Brands, Phoenix Brands, Community Coffee and Hormel Foods. 

Tucker also has extensive experience with confections and across all Brown & Haley’s classes of trade. He’ll be responsible for sales to U.S. retailers and distributors, including overseeing the company’s U.S. sales team and brokers.

Tucker succeeds Katherine Phegley, who announced her retirement earlier this year.

“Katherine has made a significant, positive contribution to Brown & Haley and will be supporting Time to ensure a seamless transition,” Brown & Haley President John Melin and CEO Pierson Clair wrote in a letter to customers. “We are incredibly grateful for Katherine’s contributions to Brown & Haley. (We) are sure all those who have had the privilege to work with Katherine feel the same.”

Melin and Clair added the addition of Tucker to the company’s sales team will “reinforce its commitment to growth within the Roca and Mountain brands.”
