Performance Food Group Company (“PFG”) (NYSE: PFGC) today announced an executive leadership transition with Dave Flitman, Executive Vice President, PFG and President and CEO of Performance Foodservice, leaving the company to pursue a chief executive role outside the foodservice industry. As a result of Mr. Flitman’s departure, Craig Hoskins, President and CEO, PFG Customized and Performance Foodservice Sales and Marketing leader, will assume responsibility of Performance Foodservice on an interim basis while the Company conducts an executive search.

"Dave has made significant contributions to the continued success of the Company over the last three and a half years, and on behalf of our board and management team, I want to thank him for his contributions," said George Holm, PFG’s President and Chief Executive Officer.
