"Flagship Food's expansion signals that Albuquerque's economy is on the rise," said Mayor Tim Keller, "Adding 90 jobs to an already thriving company is no small feat, and these are the types of jobs that Albuquerque needs. Albuquerque is lucky to have Flagship here."
In addition, Flagship has announced that Becky Prescott has joined the company as of the manufacturing facility. Prescott has been a resident of New Mexico for several years and was previously at General Mills.
"Our Lilly B's organic burritos, our Hatch Kitchen handheld snacks, and our 505 Southwestern green chile and salsas continue to experience growth in the marketplace, so we are pleased to announce this expansion," said Andrew Bebbington, CFO of Flagship. "Adding Becky to our team further solidifies our commitment to building a first-class management team from top to bottom."
