FMI — The Food Industry Association announced Thursday the promotion of four leaders, including a new vice president of health and well-being as well as a vice president of financial operations.

Krystal Register, now FMI’s vice president of health and well-being, has been with FMI since 2020 when she joined the trade association to lead its health and well-being initiatives. FMI credits her with being instrumental in the association’s participation in the White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition and Health. 

The trade group promoted Diane Gill to controller and vice president of financial operations. She will lead financial strategies and operations with an added focus of overseeing FMI’s financial direction, according to the announcement. Gill has been with FMI for nearly nine years and previously served as the trade association’s senior director and controller of finance, per her LinkedIn profile. 

FMI promoted Steven Harris to senior director of government relations and strategic initiatives, where he will continue to build FMI’s relationships with government entities. Harris has been with FMI for 15 years, holding numerous leadership positions related to FMI’s political affairs, according to his LinkedIn profile. Most recently, he served as the association’s director of policy development and regulatory compliance.

Tom Cosgrove, who has worked for FMI for the past seven years, was appointed director of industry relations to assist in advancing the food industry’s efforts in asset protection, technology, supply chain, risk and safety, and private brand portfolios. This new role builds on Cosgrove’s previous positions at FMI, including senior manager of industry relations, per Cosgrove’s LinkedIn profile.
