Buckman rearranges North American structure
31/07/2013
The new company will begin operating immediately and will be based out of the Buckman global headquarters in Memphis. The company will also maintain operations at the current Buckman Canada location in Vaudreuil-Dorion, a suburb of Montreal.
Jim Doan will serve as president of Buckman North America and Pete Tchouros will serve as general manager operations for the new company.
“When fully operational, this new Buckman North America structure will give Buckman associates in Canada and the United States increased access to technical knowledge, encourage sharing of best practices and enhance abilities to serve our customers,” said Mr Doan at the time of the announcement.
Creation of Buckman North America follows similar organisational changes made around the world as a part of the OneBuckman global business model that is focused on maximising efficiency, synergy and customer responsiveness. This new geographic organisation is similar to the structure of most of Buckman’s customers. With the creation of Buckman North America, Buckman now has six geographically organised operating companies focused on customer needs around the world.
