LENEXA, KS — PureField Ingredients, known for its food ingredients platform and low-carbon biofuels, has appointed Luciano Salvatierra as its CFO.

Salvatierra brings more than two decades of leadership experience across agrifood and renewable fuels value chains to the role. His extensive background spanning finance, operations and low-carbon fuel platforms will be instrumental as PureField expands its integrated operating model and builds durable commercial relationships.

“Luciano’s experience across agrifood and renewable fuels — particularly his work across integrated, innovative value chains — makes him an outstanding fit for PureField as we enter our next phase of growth,” said Aaron Buettner, CEO of PureField Ingredients. “His leadership will be critical as we scale the platform, execute our strategy and continue building a differentiated, low-carbon business.”

Salvatierra most recently served as senior VP of renewable fuels at Bunge, where he led the company’s global renewable fuels feedstock strategy and oversaw strategic partnerships with energy companies. He’s held numerous senior finance leadership roles across both corporate and operating units, with a firm grasp on capital allocations and complex global value chains.

“PureField is building a unique platform at the intersection of food, fuel and decarbonization,” Salvatierra said. “I’m excited to join the team at this important stage and help scale an integrated business that strengthens domestic supply chains and delivers durable, long-term value for customers, partners and communities.”
