Janet Flynn, RD, joined us in 1999 and was recently promoted to Wegmans brand quality assurance manager. You'll find Janet in the test kitchen, making sure that our Consumer Affairs specialists and store employees get the information needed to answer customers' questions about our products. Having Janet in the test kitchen has been particularly helpful in serving customers with special needs.

Jane advocates "the multiplier effect" by working to inspire other employees to share food and nutrition information with customers. She now manages a diverse team of talented nutritionists whose mission is to help you "eat well live well" through everyday choices in the aisle and on the plate.
