Catoggio joined Post in 2021 as CEO of its Post Consumer Brands division, which accounts for half of the company's $7.9 billion in net sales. He will oversee the company's largest segment, as well as Weetabix, Bob Evans, and foodservice operations. Catoggio's promotion may position him to replace current CEO Rob Vitale in the future.
