JACKSON, MI — Packaging equipment manufacturer LeMatic has named Mark Porter manager of risk mitigation.
“I’m looking forward to assisting the LeMatic team in their quest to be your preferred equipment supplier,” says Porter.
Porter has over 45 years of experience in bakery manufacturing and engineering experience, including corporate management and plant oversite, equipment sourcing, construction, staffing, and start-up and management of baking plants.
Porter started his career at Baker Perkins before joining Aunt Millie’s as director of engineering. He remained with the company for 35 years, working his way up to SVP of operations.
“I have no doubt that Mark will be of much value to not only LeMatic, but our customers as well,” said Richard Kirkland, president of LeMatic. “We need someone to engage the customer early on in a project and align our deliverables with their expectations. With Mark’s vast experience in bakery projects, I believe he will greatly reduce the many risks that occur during design, manufacture, assembly and installation of a project.”
