New President for Houweling's

Houweling’s is pleased to announce COO Kevin Doran has been appointed the additional role of President for the Houweling’s Group of Companies. Having joined Houweling’s as COO in late 2014, Doran has been instrumental in the transition of the company to a vertically integrated grower and direct to market business.

Casey Houweling, CEO and Corporate Grower for the company, notes “In reviewing how to best position the business for generational success, the path was clear. Kevin’s impact in a little over a year at Houweling’s, his background as Managing Director of Greenery UK Ltd and a number of other The Greenery BV business units in Europe, made him the right person to take the reigns as President. Additionally it enables me to focus on areas of the business I am most passionate about; the growing, and continued development and adoption of innovative, sustainable technologies.”

Commenting on his appointment to the additional role of President, Doran notes, “I firmly believed when joining Houweling’s last year, that we had a strong foundation to build on in achieving our objective to elevate the company’s retail partnerships, by becoming a supplier of choice, in addition to maintaining our status as a world class grower.” He continues, “I am proud of what our team has accomplished since I joined the business and thankful for the opportunity to continue to lead, empower our management group, and position the business for continued success.”
