The Mid-Atlantic Food Trades Organization (MAFTO) honored Jonathan Weis, president, CEO and chairman of Weis Markets, Inc., as its 2014 Person of the Year during its annual Dinner-Dance Weekend at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront in Baltimore.

The successful event, which had been rescheduled from last fall due to the closing of the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City, exceeded 500 attendees.

Weis thanked his father Robert F. Weis and the entire Weis team, many whom joined him to celebrate the evening. MAFTO’s Charlie Poletti, Acosta; and Mike Mackin, Schmidt Baking Company, presented him with a plaque commemorating the award. Additionally, Poletti read a special citation from Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf.

Weis Markets donated all the shrimp for the cocktail reception and the floral arrangements for the tables. Thanks to their support, MAFTO was able to give $42,000 in scholarships for the 2014-15 school year.
