Brady Stewart, an executive at Tyson Foods of Springdale before his sudden departure Sept. 2, has landed a new gig as chief strategy officer at Iowa Select Farms in Iowa Falls.
Stewart was Tyson Foods’ chief supply chain officer and group president of its food and pork and prepared foods divisions. The company announced his departure for what it said, cryptically, was a violation of its Code of Conduct.
Tyson Foods did say, in a filing with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission, that Stewart would receive separation benefits, including incentive compensation for fiscal 2025, which ended Sept. 27, and two times his annual salary, which was $917,769 in 2024.
Tyson Foods promoted Devin Cole to replace Stewart. In 2023, Stewart paid $2.9 million for a home formerly owned by Cole overlooking John Tyson’s Blessing Golf Club. Tyson, of course, is the chairman of the Tyson Foods board.
This summer, Cole bought the home back from Stewart for $2.93 million.
