CSM Bakery Products (www.csmbakeryproducts.com) welcomes Jeff Boser as Senior Vice President of Sales. He assumes these responsibilities from Bill Day who announced his intention to retire after more than ten years with CSM. Day will remain on the executive team for the next several months to ensure a seamless transition for customers and sales professionals.
Boser graduated from John Carroll University Ohio with a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration and joined Frito-Lay® in 1985. He then began working for Heublein Wines in 1994 and in 1996 joined Keebler Company, which was acquired by Kellogg Company in 2000.
While with Kellogg Company, Boser progressed quickly from Director of Regional Marketing and Accounts to Vice President of Sales, Mass. Boser then became Vice President of Sales for the Central Region where he was in charge of sales volumes of $1.5B and 1,200 employees. One year later, he assumed the role of Senior Vice President of Sales for the U.S. where he was responsible for $6B in revenue and a team of 3,200 sales professionals managing all grocery and mass accounts.
