Verdafresh names Dave Klopp Chief Executive Officer

Verdafresh announced that Dave Klopp was promoted to Chief Executive Officer effective August 12, 2022. He is a packaging industry veteran with over 25 years of experience; specializing in film making, converting, rigid packaging, private label packaging integration, P&L, and corporate development. Dave graduated from the University of Delaware with a Bachelor’s degree in Food Marketing Management.

As Verdafresh continues its growth under Dave’s leadership, co-founder Fred Levitt will support technology transfer to Verdafresh customers and continue to serve on the company’s Board of Directors.
