AS NEW INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR
Rochester, N.Y. May 21, 2026 - Constellation Brands, Inc. (NYSE: STZ), a leading beverage alcohol company, today announced the election of Morgan Flatley of McDonald's Corporation (NYSE: MCD), the world's leading global foodservice retailer, to serve as a member of its Board of Directors effective May 20, 2026.
"We're excited to welcome Morgan to Constellation Brands' Board of Directors," said Constellation Brands Board Chair Chris Baldwin. "Morgan's extensive global brand-building experience in both the consumer-packaged goods and food and beverage sectors will benefit Constellation as we continue to position the company to remain the #1 high-end beer supplier in the U.S. by dollar sales and a leader in dollar share gains within the dynamic beverage alcohol category."
Flatley currently serves as Executive Vice President, Global Chief Marketing Officer and New Business Ventures at McDonald's Corporation, where she is responsible for global brand building, including driving the company's growth and transformation across marketing, menu, value platforms, digital customer engagement, insights, and new business ventures.
Since joining McDonald's in 2017, Flatley has been the driving force behind some of the Brand's most inspired marketing campaigns. She has been named to the Forbes World's Most Influential CMOs list multiple times and has been recognized with Adweek's most prestigious honor - Brand Genius. Under Flatley's leadership, McDonald's has also been recognized multiple times as a top marketer among consumer brands.
Prior to joining McDonald's, Flatley spent 13 years at PepsiCo, Inc., a multinational food, snack, and beverage company, most recently serving as Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, Global Nutrition, responsible for brand positioning and innovation for Quaker, Tropicana, Gatorade, and Naked Juice.
"Constellation Brands has built one of the most distinctive and iconic brand portfolios in the industry by staying deeply attuned to consumers and shaping culture, not just responding to it," said Flatley. "I look forward to collaborating with my fellow board members and lending perspective to help Constellation's executive team continue building on the company's strong foundation for growth and track record of success."
With Flatley's election, the composition of Constellation Brands' Board of Directors returns to twelve members, following former President and Chief Executive Officer Bill Newlands' retirement from the Board in April 2026. Flatley's election serves as a continuation of the company's comprehensive board refreshment process.
