"In addition to his exceptional culinary credentials, Chef Tom's special ingredient is his ability to transfer passion for his craft into inspiration for all the teams he works with -- a true asset to food professionals and businesses!"

Oliver Armstrong, Vice President, Corporate Strategy & Transformation

"I hired Chef Tom Griffiths away from the Culinary Institute of America to join Campbell’s as the leader of the newly launched Campbell Culinary and Baking Institute (CCBI). Since Chef Tom was one of the elite few Certified Master Chefs in the country, I challenged him to help return the company to its roots of making, selling, and celebrating delicious food to meet consumers’ needs. Chef Tom molded CCBI from its inception by evolving a disparate team of chefs, previously underleveraged within the business teams, into a strong global influence both within and outside the company. He developed a deep understanding of Campbell’s consumers and then strategically leveraged that knowledge and his CCBI team to influence the culinary, innovative direction of businesses, brands, and projects. Chef Tom is a humble, passionate, innovative chef and team leader that has my upmost respect within the food industry."
