Avery announces new President

Effective 1 January 2018, Avery will have a new President.

Following incumbent President Jim Sellors’ planned move to Asia, Avery VP/GM Europe & Asia Pacific Mark Cooper has been promoted to this role.

As President, he will relocate from the UK to California with the objective of returning the Avery and METO businesses to growth through a combination of product and service innovations, share gains and acquisitions, while retaining the strong cost and profit focus developed under parent company CCL’s ownership.

Cooper’s career in the office products industry spans more than 30 years, much of it at Avery Dennison in the consumer products arm. After a stint with European envelope manufacturer Bong, he returned to Avery following its acquisition by CCL in 2013.
