Zinpro Corporation Announces Executive Leadership Changes
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Anderson Promotes Scrimgeour to President & CEO, and Sheffer Joins Company as
COO
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., June 13, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Zinpro Corporation
announces that its owner, Michael D. Anderson, has promoted William Scrimgeour
to be the company's next president and CEO. The transfer in CEO responsibilities
to Scrimgeour will allow Anderson to concentrate more time and energy on his
role as chairman of the board of directors. Anderson has held his positions as
CEO and board of directors chairman for Zinpro Corporation since May, 1992.
The change in responsibilities will enable Anderson to more effectively lead the
board of directors to set the company's future course and to provide strategic
direction as the company continues to expand globally. "In the next five years,
we anticipate our company's growth to increase rapidly worldwide, and we need to
not only enhance our efforts in areas that will count most, but also add to our
leadership team as we prepare for the future," says Anderson. "Handing off my
CEO responsibilities will also allow me to concentrate more on how to expand the
scope of our company's positive global impact, both on animals and people."
Anderson's successful tenure as CEO is marked by many accomplishments since
taking on the role from his father and founder, Dean Anderson. Over the past 25
years, Michael Anderson has led the company to develop and launch more than 75
new products, to expand sales into 60 additional countries, to build three
manufacturing facilities and to establish nine international subsidiaries and
two new business ventures. In addition, he has guided the expansion of Zinpro
Corporation into a leading global exporter of Performance Minerals®.
Scrimgeour takes on his new position as president and CEO, having previously
served Zinpro Corporation as president and Chief Operating Officer (COO) since
2008. "Over the last nine years, Bill has excelled in overseeing all company
departments and managing day-to-day operations," says Anderson. "I'm confident
Bill will be instrumental in helping Zinpro to continue to meet the demand from
an ever-increasing global customer base who desires our products and services to
improve animal wellness and performance."
With Scrimgeour taking on the position of CEO, the company also announces that
Rob Sheffer has joined Zinpro Corporation as its new COO. Sheffer comes to
Zinpro with more than 25 years of leadership experience - most of it with a
global animal nutrition company. Sheffer's wide-ranging leadership experience
includes positions as president and CEO, group director, managing director,
regional sales leader and branch manager. He also served as board chair for the
American Feed Industry Association from 2015-2016.
"Rob has a proven track record for developing, motivating and inspiring teams to
achieve business growth, including growth in global markets," says Scrimgeour.
"I'm very pleased to welcome him to Zinpro to be our next COO. His extensive
leadership experience in the feed and animal nutrition industries will serve him
well, and Zinpro well, as our company continues to expand worldwide."
As the industry leader in trace mineral nutrition for livestock and poultry,
Zinpro is committed to delivering the technical expertise, products and
educational tools needed to help customers improve the performance and
profitability of their operations.
