MTY FOOD GROUP INC. ANNOUNCES NEW CHIEF LEGAL OFFICER

MTY Food Group Inc. has promoted Jenny Moody to chief legal officer.

Mrs. Moody joined the U.S. division of MTY in 2010 and has since served in multiple roles of increasing responsibility, including senior vice-president and deputy general counsel where she was also head of human resources at Kahala Brands, and most recently general counsel of all of MTY's U.S. operations. During this time she has also been an active participant in the strong culture of MTY, serving as a long-time member and treasurer of the organization's community outreach and diversity group and as a senior member of MTY's environmental, social and governance (ESG) committee. For over a decade she has consistently demonstrated exceptional teamwork, leadership qualities, passion and skills.

"Since the acquisition of Kahala Brands in 2016, Jenny has been an incredible contributor to the success of MTY. After successfully and seamlessly integrating the legal function for all of the U.S., where two-thirds of MTY's network is located today, the logical next step was to bring the entire North American legal function together under Jenny's leadership," said Eric Lefebvre, chief executive officer of MTY. "Jenny brings a lot of experience, credibility and enthusiasm to our leadership team. She will work with our existing, accomplished legal teams located in our various offices to accelerate the development and implementation of new initiatives that will support our goals for the long term."

"I have witnessed first-hand MTY's limitless potential as talented people in our organization -- many of which have been with MTY for many years -- have continuously come together to accomplish significant milestones such as reaching over 7,000 unit count globally and surpassing the $5-billion mark in system sales during the last four quarters. I'm genuinely thankful and excited to continue partnering with the legal and business teams in supporting MTY's overall business and growth objectives," says Mrs. Moody.

Mrs. Moody holds a BA from Washington University in St. Louis where she was a two-sport NCAA athlete, and a JD from Arizona State University where she was a Pedrick Scholar. She was a finalist in the Up and Coming category for the Arizona Corporate Counsel Awards in 2016 and was named by AZ Business Magazine as one of Arizona's most influential young business leaders.
