All of us at Fairway would like to thank Herb for his many contributions to our success.”

Kevin will be responsible for all merchandising and store operations and Ed will assume responsibility for all other corporate functions. We believe that our senior leadership team is extraordinarily strong, focused and determined and that these changes help take us to the next level in our organization’s growth and in enhancing our ability to execute to very demanding goals.”
