He most recently was senior director of global network optimization & design from former sister company CHEP.

He joined CHEP in 2002, and senior director of national sales for CHEP Recycled Pallet Solutions, senior director of retail business development for CHEP North America and director of strategic planning for CHEP North America, according to the release.

“We are thrilled to welcome Jon to the IFCO family,” Dan Martin, president of IFCO North America, said in the release. “His strong track record of leadership and proven ability to develop innovative supply chain solutions for the fast-moving consumer goods sector make him the ideal candidate to work with our retail customers on packaging and supply chain solutions for fresh food.”
