This yearly award honors an individual who has provided continuing and meritorious service to the food science and technology industry, particularly in the southwest United States.

Mr. Kreienbrink’s experience, strength, hope, and humor is related to his two terms as SCIFTS Co-Chair, 20 years as the SCIFTS Newsletter Editor, four-time Member at Large, College Bowl Judge, Speaker, IT zoom-master during the COVID pandemic, and yes – even chauffeur to the food science elite.
