Farmingdale State College Honors Massapequa Park Resident with Alumni Award

Farmingdale State College Alumni Awards Dinner Coming March 30

Farmingdale State College’s annual Alumni Awards Dinner has been scheduled for Thursday, March 30, at the Crest Hollow Country Club in Woodbury. Highlights of the event will include a presentation of the Judith M. McEvoy Alumnus of the Year Award to Massapequa Park resident Joe Egan ’70, President of Farmingdale’s Alumni Association.

Egan, a leading food industry consultant, graduated from Farmingdale in 1970 with a degree in Food Processing Technology. Since that time he has held numerous positions in the food industry, from owning a restaurant, to national sales manager for a major gourmet cheese importer, and director of strategic alignment for Boar’s Head Provisions. He also ran the Western Cheese Division of General Foods.

Egan began Egan Consulting Company in 2000, and immediately became a leader in food distribution technology, developing a sophisticated cloud-based accounting and distribution computer product line for the perishable specialty food industry. This year Egan Consulting began a strategic partnership with Amazon Web Services.
