Blount Fine Foods, a leading manufacturer of premium, handcrafted soups, entrées, and side dishes for retail and foodservice, and the market leader in fresh retail soups, today announced David Vittorio has been promoted to Senior Director of Marketing, a role that supports not only Blount-branded products, but also wellknown consumer food brands licensed by Blount, as well as for the many private label brands for which Blount makes soups and other prepared foods.

“David Vittorio is the keeper of the Blount Find Foods brand, which has grown in scale and sophistication as the company has enjoyed a sustained period of incredible growth,” said Bob Sewall, Blount’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing, and Vittorio’s direct supervisor. “Not only is he the primary steward of the Blount brand, but he also carefully coordinates our use of licensed brands under which we market soups, including Panera Bread and Legal Sea Foods. On top of that, he and his team provide marketing and packaging support to many of the country’s top restaurant and grocery brands for whom we manufacture private label soups, entrées and sides.”

Vittorio directs a department that collaborates and partners closely with not only Blount’s sales team to ensure Blount products are well known and sought after by retailers and restaurants, but also with chefs and executives at those retailers and restaurants to provide incremental marketing support that helps customers sell more Blount products. From package design to point-of-sale to web, social media, digital and traditional advertising, the Blount brand has grown every year under Vittorio’s leadership. In addition to supporting Blount’s sales department, Vittorio and his team also collaborate closely with the company’s culinary and R&D teams as well as operations and manufacturing.

Vittorio is a lifelong resident of North Providence, where he lives with his wife Doreen and their daughter Bianca.
