CAL-MAINE FOODS, INC. APPOINTS KEIRA LOMBARDO AS
COMPANY’S FIRST CHIEF STRATEGY OFFICER
RIDGELAND, Miss.(August 11, 2025)
Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. (NASDAQ: CALM (“Cal-Maine Foods” or
the “Company”),today announced the appointment of Keira Lombardo as the Company’s first-ever Chief
Strategy Officer (CSO), effective today.
The creation of this role underscores Cal-Maine Food’s commitment to delivering long-term value
through operational excellence, innovation, and deeper stakeholder engagement. As CSO, Lombardo will
work with the senior leadership team to further accelerate and shape enterprise priorities—building on Cal-
Maine Food’s leadership role in a rapidly changing marketplace.
Lombardo is a seasoned food and agriculture executive with over two decades of experience leading
transformation and growth across complex, multi-stakeholder food systems. She brings a performance-
driven mindset grounded in purpose and a deep commitment to the people and principles that power a
resilient, sustainable food supply—today and for the future. Lombardo most recently served as Chief
Executive Officer of Dairy MAX, a leading dairy organization representing 700 dairy farmers and 15% of
the U.S. milk supply. Under her leadership, Dairy MAX implemented an ROI-focused operating model,
aligned its structure, talent, and strategic focus, and elevated dairy as a smart, affordable choice rooted in
wellness, trust, and sustainability. Before joining Dairy MAX, she was a senior executive at Smithfield
Foods, where she played a key role in repositioning the company from a commodity protein producer to a
branded, purpose-driven CPG business—leading functions across corporate affairs, people and culture, and
stakeholder strategy.
Lombardo’s responsibilities at Cal-Maine Foods will include partnering on enterprise strategy,
stakeholder engagement, corporate affairs, public relations, and digital integration. She will work to align
the Company’s internal vision with external priorities, ensuring that purpose, performance, and culture
reinforce one another.

insight to Cal-Maine Foods,” said Sherman Miller, president and chief executive officer of Cal-Maine Foods.

disciplined capital allocation into meaningful stakeholder returns—partnering with the team to unlock new
growth opportunities, navigate complexity, and strengthen our performance in a dynamic environment.”

evolve through innovation, discipline, and strategic focus. I look forward to collaborating with the
leadership team to build on that momentum and help drive long-term value across the business.”
