Refresco Gerber France, one of the biggest private label food-packaging producers in Europe, has named Pierre Bodard as its new director general, LSA-Conso.fr reports.
Bodard, who has been Refresco France’s commercial director and director of marketing since 2007, succeeds Vincent Delozière, who is credited with turning the company into one of the leading private label bottlers and packagers in the EU, according to LSA.
Beyond Refresco, Bodard has worked with Dieux (1997-2001), Lustucru (2001-2004) and Orangina-Schweppes (2004-2007).
Olivier Ringler, who has been an employee of cotton-pad company Lemoine, and of Svenska Cellulosa Aktiebolaget, the Swedish hygiene-paper company, will replace Bodard as commercial director.
