LENEXA, Kan. — Gary Robertson has joined Ceva Animal Health as Director of the newly formed swine business unit. Robertson joins Ceva with more than 15 years of experience growing swine product portfolios for animal health companies. In his new role, Robertson is charged with building Ceva's U.S. swine division, which will include product development, sales, marketing and technical services.
"Gary's passion and understanding of the market, along with his strong relationships in the industry, will help Ceva launch a successful swine business unit," says Craig Wallace, CEO and North American Zone Director. "Launching a swine division is imperative to achieving our goal of becoming a broad-based animal health company."
Ceva is an emerging animal health company both on a global and national scale. The company most recently launched its equine division and, with the additional expansion into swine, hopes to continue its strategic growth in the U.S. animal health space. Adding a swine division with Robertson at the helm demonstrates Ceva's continued investment in the animal health industry.
"Our companion animal, equine and poultry business units are rapidly growing and now our expansion into swine helps us continue that strategic growth," says Wallace. "Gary brings to Ceva broad U.S. and international experience in sales, marketing and account management in the swine industry. This is something I'm confident producers and veterinarians will notice and appreciate."
