In March 2021, McClellan was promoted to Vice President, Fresh Merchandising, overseeing the fresh product categories across 145 company-owned stores and 2,100 independent retail customers.

She serves on the SpartanNash Foundation Board of Trustees, the Greater South Bend (Ind.) Regional Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, and the Ohio-based Buehler’s Fresh Foods Board of Directors. McClellan is a two-time Top Women in Grocery Honoree (2018, 2020) and was recognized in 2019 as a “NextGen” 40 under 40 award winner by Progressive Grocer.
