Brendon Fischer has been appointed interim chief financial officer of Irving-based Sow Good Inc., a trailblazer in the freeze-dried candy and treat industry, following the resignation of former CFO, Keith Terreri.
“Brendon has been instrumental as we continue progressing our strategic growth initiatives to meet the robust demand in the freeze-dried candy space,” Sow Good Executive Chairman Ira Goldfarb said in a statement. “With his existing knowledge of Sow Good’s business model and decades of financial experience, we are confident in his abilities to support us through this transition. We would like to thank Keith for his time at Sow Good and wish him all the best in his future endeavors.”
Fischer first joined Sow Good last June, bringing over 20 years of leadership experience in financial analysis, shareholder communications, and regulatory compliance with public and private companies.
His previous experience spans several industries, Sow Good said, including food and beverage, consumer, packaging, healthcare, energy, technology, and gaming.
Before Sow Good, Fischer was chief investment officer, managing director, and chief compliance officer of Fischer Capital Management, an investment advisory firm he founded in 2018.
Previously, Fischer was an assistant investment officer and portfolio manager at Rocky Mountain Advisors, managing a $1.3 billion publicly traded fund formerly known as the Boulder Growth & Income Fund.
Before that, Fischer spent more than a decade analyzing and maintaining equity and debt research coverage of public and private companies at H.I.G. WhiteHorse and Ulland Investment Advisors, with an early focus on small-cap growth companies.
Sow Good Inc. said it has harnessed the power of its proprietary freeze-drying technology and product-specialized manufacturing facility to transform traditional candy into a novel everyday confectionaries subcategory that it calls freeze dried candy.
