Almost 98 per cent of Longtable Group shareholders voted to change the company’s name to Maggie Beer Holdings at a 16 July shareholder meeting.

Earlier this month the company told the ASX it would better reflect the principal brand for the company.

The company has recorded strong sales of Maggie Beer products during COVID-19 due to more people cooking from home and Beer airing a cooking show that had more than four million views.

Performance by the company’s other two brands - Saint David Dairy and Paris Creek Farm - were also improving.

The company had a C-suite exodus at the end of 2019, with Chantale Millard now CEO and Reg Weine appointed chair in March this year.
