Chris Lam ’91, Named In Top “40 Under 40” by San Francisco Business Times

Chris Lam, the President and CEO of Pucci Foods, is recognized by the San Francisco Business Times as one of the “40 under 40” for his success at Pucci Foods, a wholesale seafood distribution company.

Just seven years after graduating with his MBA, and working his way up the ranks in the seafood industry, he took a gamble and mortgaged his house to purchase the 98-year-old Pucci Foods. He was only 33 at the time.

In 2016, Lam shook up the highly traditional seafood industry by merging his business into the tech world with the addition of an online next-day seafood delivery service. Chris earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BSBA) and a Bachelor of Art in Economics (BA) from University of California Riverside. He earned his MBA from California State University, San Bernardino.
