Pharma Tech Industries Names COO

Jacobo Capuano has been appointed chief operating officer at Pharma Tech Industries. He also joins the leadership team.
 
Mr. Capuano will be responsible for incorporating and implementing Pharma Tech’s new operational excellence sustainability program, known as “XL”.  The “X” stands for cross functional teamwork and “L” stands for legacy – the program aims to provide every employee across the organization an opportunity to engage in continuous improvement and, in doing so, build their individual skill sets.
 
Mr. Capuano will be based at Pharma Tech’s headquarters in Athens, GA, but will spend much of his time at the company’s facilities in Royston, GA and Union, MO.
 
Mr. Capuano has more than 25 years of operations and strategic supply chain experience, providing leadership in the execution of strategic, cross-team initiatives to deliver quality, productivity and bottom line results. Prior to joining the company, Mr. Capuano was director of Global Strategic Sourcing for The Clorox Company and he held leadership positions at Procter & Gamble and Givaudan Flavors. 
 
“We welcome Jacobo to our leadership team during this important period for Pharma Tech Industries,” said chairman and chief executive officer, Tee Noland. “His leadership skills, supply chain experience, and multi-site management capabilities – including those pertaining to sustainability and scalability – will be invaluable as we focus on ensuring speed, quality and coordination of activities at all of our facilities to maintain our reputation for total customer satisfaction.”
