The Schenck Process Group is pleased to announce the appointment of Dustin O’Farrell as Managing Director (CEO) of the new location Schenck Process (Thailand) Ltd., with effect from 19th October 2021.

“Expanding our influence in the food processing space is objective number one. We are essentially connecting this new entity (SHAPE) into the larger network of the Schenck Process Group. We want to expand upon our offerings that are already possible through the SHAPE portfolio and the services they provide.”
