Stewart joined Acosta in 1999 as part of its acquisition of the Kelley-Clarke organization. At the time, Acosta was establishing a national footprint from what had previously been an industry with 2,000 local food brokers spread across the U.S. As retailers began to nationalize, Stewart's work in category management and analytics enabled Acosta to offer clients highly competitive, next-generation analytics capabilities, including ForeSite and predictive analytics tools the company rolled out in 2019.
