“As Multivac continues to grow, we want to guarantee our customers a consistently high level of personalized, expert consultation,” says Koch. “These three gentlemen have a profound understanding not just of packaging technology, but also the way our clients use it to safeguard their products and grow their businesses. We are delighted to make this announcement, and confident these professionals will manage their respective organizations with our customers’ success in mind.”

Multivac also announced that announces that Vince Knoch and Tom Rapuzzi have joined the company as regional sales managers within its food division.

Based out of Nashville, Knoch will serve Multivac customers in Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi. He joins Multivac from TLC Medical, Inc., where he was responsible for a broad range of equipment sales.

“Both Tom and Vince come to Multivac well prepared from their experiences in capital equipment sales and customer service,” says Wilhelm. “Each has a keen understanding of the challenges our customers face in a competitive industry, and I’m confident they will do an exceptional job in consulting and delivering the best tools for better packaging. We are delighted to have these two professionals join us as our newest regional sales managers.”
