VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / June 3, 2022 / Wildpack Beverage Inc. (TSXV:CANS) (OTCQB:WLDPF) ("Wildpack" or the "Company"), a U.S. national beverage co-packer and packaging supplier focused on the aluminum can format, announced today that Chuck Zadlo, Chief Operating Officer, has resigned from the Company effective June 2, 2022.
"I thank Chuck for his contributions to Wildpack's history," commented Mitch Barnard, Chief Executive Officer. "In the time Chuck has been part of the team he helped guide our operations through the expansion from two facilities to six, while navigating the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. I wish Chuck well in all future endeavours."
Wildpack will not seek to fill the position, but rather reporting will be streamlined directly from key working operational personnel through to the Chief Executive Officer. This shortening of the communication feedback loop will drive quicker real time bias to action, as the team accelerates our focus on the shift to fundamental profit-centric operations, with lower break-evens across all our geographies.
