How do you revive a 100-year-old brand… without playing it safe?
Andy Mecs, President of Chicken of the Sea, didn’t just inherit a legacy—he reshaped it.
But not by chasing trends.
Not by copying the competition.
And definitely not by playing defense.
Instead, he made a series of bold moves that most would’ve avoided—
And in the process, turned a fading favorite into a rising force.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
The unexpected career moment that changed everything
How he rebuilt trust—and a team—during the Great Resignation
Why zigging while others zag became his leadership edge
🎧 What happened inside Chicken of the Sea is bigger than tuna.
💬 What’s a time you bet on a harder path… and it paid off?
