“May you have a strong foundation when the winds of change shift…and may you stay forever young” – Bob Dylan.
Poignant words which reflect the constant change process within Label Tech as we say farewell to David Keogh, who after 16 years at the helm, is to exit the business in the coming months. Dave has been a wonderful leader, mentor and friend to us all at Label Tech and it has been a pleasure working with him. It has been a very exciting journey for me since 2002 realising our goals and ambitions along the way. I would like to thank Dave for his guidance and wish him every success in the future. He leaves a strong foundation behind and one on which we will build. In addition, I would like to formally welcome Johnny Woods on board. Johnny joins the business as a shareholder and Sales & Finance Director. A qualified Chartered Accountant, Johnny has worked in the distribution industry with Caterpillar before joining Multiprint Labels. He has built up extensive expertise in the Drinks sector in Ireland & the UK and led the company successfully until acquisition by Multi Color Corporation (MCC). Johnny has been key in helping us establish a leading position in the Drinks Sector, one that we know will continue to grow under his expert guidance. Johnny is thrilled to be joining the Label Tech family as we move onto the next chapter of our evolution.
