EveryWare Global Appoints Leaders To New Business Units

EveryWare Global has appointed executives to leadership positions for its three newly created business units for food service, retail and specialty channels.

The company has appointed Corrie Byron as president of the food service and international business unit, and promoted Jamie Keller to evp/retail business unit and Brett Fulford to evp/specialty business unit. In these roles, they will be responsible for overseeing design, planning, marketing and sales for their business units.

Patrick Lockwood-Taylor, EveryWare's CEO, said the three executives are charged with leading their teams to maximize profitability and increase market share. “Corrie is a seasoned executive with proven success in growing brands, businesses and teams,” he said. “Jamie and Brett are EveryWare Global veterans with deep knowledge of our brands and markets to complement their leadership skills. As we transition our organization to three separate business units, Corrie, Jamie and Brett will focus on building upon our strong product portfolio and delivering innovative and desirable new products for our customers. Although EveryWare Global is an industry leader, we have opportunities to grow in every market and are confident that this new structure puts us in a better position to capitalize on them.”

Food service and international business units supply tabletop and barware products through distributors and equipment supply dealers to leading hotels, gaming, cruise lines, chain restaurants and airlines.

The retail business unit provides a broad array of tabletop, food preparation and pantry products at a variety of pricepoints, primarily under the Oneida and Anchor Hocking brands.

EveryWare Global’s specialty business unit offers glassware products to candle manufacturers and floral wholesalers, direct sellers, industrial lighting manufacturers and domestic and international distillers and distributors of premium alcohol and wine brands.
