July 27 (Reuters) - Cracker Barrel on Monday said Julie Masino would step down as its CEO, nearly a year after the company faced criticism from conservatives, including U.S. President Donald Trump, for a short-lived decision to change its decades-old logo.
Here are the details:
• Masino will step down as CEO on August 10 after about three years in the role and will remain with the company in an advisory capacity until October 9.
• Cracker Barrel named restaurant industry veteran David Deno as its new top boss.
• In August 2025, the company faced backlash on social media for its decision to modernize its logo and stores and replace its decades-old "Old-Timer" signage which featured the image of an overalls-clad man known as "Uncle Herschel" leaning against a barrel.
