Mr. Armstrong will play an integral role in EAS' new Product Development and Labeling Service, a service designed to help food firms faced with decisions to develop and market products that meet consumer demands in an environment of vague or non-existent regulatory guidance and regulation.  EAS (and its predecessor companies) has been working with the global food industry for over 55 years to assure compliance with US regulatory requirements.

Before coming to Campbell, Mr. Armstrong served as the Senior Marketing Counsel at Energizer's Schick-Wilkinson Sword Division and as the Assistant General Counsel for Marketing at Unilever United States. He also served as a regulatory and division counsel at Colgate-Palmolive Company.  Mr. Armstrong is on the Board of Directors of the Food and Drug Law Institute in Washington, D.C., and is a frequent speaker on food law issues.  Prior to his in-house practice, Mr. Armstrong worked as an associate in commercial litigation and regulatory matters at Townley & Updike in New York City.  Before law school, he had over 12 years' experience as a journalist, including five years as an editor at The Miami Herald.  Mr. Armstrong earned his bachelor's degree from Harvard College and his law degree from Columbia University.
