Masser Family of Companies Awarded in Product Innovation; Lela Reichart and Fresh Solutions Network's Kathleen Triou Comment



SACRAMENTO, PA - The new Side Delights® Amazables! potato product line is already living up to its name, turning heads and, most recently, winning the Masser Family of Companies (MFC) product innovation awards and citations.

Kathleen Triou, President and Chief Executive Officer, Fresh Solutions Network

“We are thrilled that the Masser Family of Companies received recognition for the product innovation of Amazables!,” Kathleen Triou, President and Chief Executive Officer of Fresh Solutions Network (FSN), said. “The Krisp Film Technology crisps the potato skin while the inside cooks up drier and fluffier—more like an oven-baked potato. Plus, the Litehouse® sauces are scrumptious—truly delicious. People tell me they devour them because they are just that tasty.”

MFC was awarded the 2024 Award for Excellence in recognition of product innovation from the Northeast Pennsylvania (NEPA) Manufacturers and Employers Association and the Employer Product Innovation Award from the National Association of Manufacturers, in conjunction with the NEPA Manufacturers and Employers Association, according to a press release, for the Side Delights Amazables! potato product line.

“We are honored to receive recognition for such an innovative product from an esteemed organization,” Lela Reichart, MFC’s Vice President of New Business Development, stated. “MFC is proud to be a partner in the Fresh Solutions Network and to be a Gold level member of the regional Northeast Manufacturing Association.”

Reichart accepted the awards at the annual ceremony and dinner on May 7 for Amazables!, which launched in March 2024 as an oven crispy-skin style microwavable U.S. No.1 grade Russet potato available with two custom Litehouse sauces.

Congratulations to both the FSN and MFC on this wonderful accomplishment!
