What’s happening at Goya Foods? Chaos and unanswered questions after CEO published bizarre press release

Robert Unanue, Goya Foods' longtime CEO, was unexpectedly removed from his position, leading to a confusing press release and unanswered questions. Unanue claims uncertainty about his employment status, despite the board's vote. He subsequently posted on X about his commitment to fighting child trafficking, unrelated to his dismissal. Goya Foods stated the leadership change is unconnected to politics or charity work. A lawsuit filed by Unanue's cousin alleges Bob Unanue's involvement in IT mismanagement through a clandestine agreement. This lawsuit claims Bob obstructed an investigation and refused to attend a crucial board meeting. Bob Unanue denies all allegations, calling them frivolous and defamatory. The IT manager, Basu, filed a counter-complaint, alleging a hostile work environment due to his heritage. Goya Foods denies Basu's allegations. Unanue's past political endorsements have caused controversy. Goya Foods, a large Hispanic-owned company, remains at the center of this ongoing drama.
