His background and leadership experience complement the customer-centric culture and expanding market opportunities.”

Allen brings nearly 20 years of experience in equipment sales, including pharmaceutical and packaging machinery. Most recently, he was Vice President of Sales – Food and Healthcare Technologies at GEA Group. Previously, he was Technical Sales Account Manager at Wyoming Machine Inc. and, prior to that, Equipment Sales Manager at Powder-Solutions Group. Allen holds a bachelor’s degree in marketing from Drake University.

“This is an exciting time at Pharmaworks. Drawing on our decades as a leader in blister packaging, we now also collaborate with other ProMach brands to take our product portfolio to the next level, including fully-integrated, turnkey systems with single-source responsibility,” said Allen. “Pharmaworks has a really bright future, and our team is eager to develop more ways to help manufacturers and packers address their production challenges and improve their operational efficiencies.”
