Middleby Appoints Amy Campbell CFO for Food Processing Spin-Off

Middleby named Amy Campbell chief financial officer of its food processing business as the unit prepares to become an independent public company in the second quarter of 2026.

The appointment completes the leadership team for the planned spin-off. Mark Salman will serve as chief executive officer, Mark Bowie as chief operating officer, Matt Fuchsen as chief strategy officer, and Rob Fagan will lead investor relations and FP&A for the standalone company.

Campbell joins Middleby effective immediately after serving as CFO of REV Group since April 2024. Before that, she was CFO of ASC Engineered Solutions and CFO of BrandSafway’s commercial and industrial division. She also spent 23 years at Caterpillar, where she held several segment CFO roles, along with vice president of investor relations and chief audit officer positions.

Middleby said the food processing spin-off remains on track for the second quarter of 2026. The company said the separation is part of a broader portfolio transformation aimed at creating three focused businesses. As a result of these announcements, the company's shares have moved -2.27% on the market, and are now trading at a price of $133.88. Check out the company's full 8-K submission here.
