Bell Flavors & Fragrances, Inc. has made new hires to strengthen its sales and sensory/consumer insights teams and support growth at its headquarters in Northbrook, Illinois.  

Craig Dunlap joins Bell’s flavor sales team as a global key account manager. In this role, he will manage accounts in the Eastern and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States.

Dunlap began in the industry as a product development scientist for several years before moving into sales. Once in the sales arena, he established a diverse background, successfully supplying both ingredients and finished flavors to the prepared foods and beverage industries. Dunlap earned a Bachelor of Science in food science from the University of Delaware and a Masters of Business Administration from Indiana University’s Kelley School of Business.

Jared Hamill joins Bell’s flavor sales team as a global key account executive. His responsibilities will include managing accounts primarily in the Eastern region of the United States.

Hamill started his career as a product development scientist with a focus on beverage creation and development within alcoholic and non-alcoholic categories. After 10 years in product development, he transitioned to sales and established himself as a successful sales professional. Hamill earned a Bachelor of Science in biology/chemistry from Richard Stockton College of New Jersey and a Masters of Business Administration from University of Texas (Dallas).

Lydia Wang joins Bell’s Sensory team as a sensory scientist. In this role, Wang will lead multiple initiatives, including sensory research for Bell’s fragrance projects, sensory descriptors for Bell’s product library and enhancing Bell’s descriptive panel program.
