Interview with Dale Morrison, President and CEO McCain Foods Limited

French fry giant McCain Foods will forever be associated with the founding - sometimes feuding - New Brunswick brothers, Wallace and the late Harrison McCain.

But the CEO these days is a straight-talking North Dakotan, Dale Morrison, who came to McCain Foods 3½ years ago with a blue-chip résumé that included a stint at the top of Campbell Soup Co.

Interviewed at his Toronto office, he talks of transforming this family company, with 20,000 employees and 55 plants on six continents, into a globally integrated operation.
