Performance Food Group Co., parent of vend product distributor Vistar, announced key management changes intended to align the company’s reporting structure with its strategy to capture growth opportunities across business units.

To that end, PFG has appointed Craig Hoskins president and chief operating officer, overseeing PFG’s foodservice and Vistar operations. Former Vistar chief Patrick Hagerty has been appointed executive vice president and chief commercial officer of PFG. In their new posts, effective Jan. 3, both executives will continue to report to PFG chairman and chief executive George Holm.

“I am excited to announce a new operating management structure for PFG,” Holm said. “Over the past several years, our company has been transformed through strategic acquisitions and organic expansion into new channels and lines of business. This new structure aligns the organization with our strategic vision to capture cross-channel growth opportunities. I am excited to have Craig and Pat’s experience, knowledge and leadership represented in these important roles as we embark on our next phase of growth.”

For the past three years, Hoskins has served as PFG's executive vice president and president and chief executive of its foodservice unit. Hagerty had been PFG's executive vice president and Vistar's chief executive since 2018.
