Deb Group Ltd., an occupational skincare company, announced the company has taken the next step in integrating the STOKO Professional Skin Care business by revealing a new North American organizational structure. Given their combined footprint, product range and history of innovation, the successful integration of the two companies is expected to have a major impact on the away-from-home skin care industry.

Recognizing the critical importance of strong leadership and sales, the new organizational structure has been thoughtfully planned and designed to strengthen its focus on industrial and institutional sectors, the company said.

“There is outstanding value magic in the combined strengths of Deb and Stoko. This next step in creating an integrated structure will create immediate demonstrable benefits for our customers,” said Michael Bogdanski, president and CEO, Deb North America. “Furthermore, the value added by the experienced and talented leadership team will enable us to better achieve our strategy and drive growth.”

 Deb has appointed the following executives to its North American leadership team, effective today:

·  Bill Taylor, President Institutional Sector

·  Stephen Lander, President Industrial Sector

·  Tom Bannon, Vice President of Sales Canada

·  Ron Shuster, Senior Vice President Business Development and Administration

·  Steve Havala, Vice President of Finance

·  Isabelle Faivre, Vice President of Marketing

·  John Clyne, North American Operations Director

"Under the new structure, the combined company will include a focus on the institutional and industrial sectors and provide customers access to the most comprehensive and effective occupational skin care product range in each sector, making Deb a one-stop shop for all workplace skincare needs," the company added. "This structure will also allow Deb to focus intensely on its company strategy of implementing skin care programs that deliver essential products, vital information and standards of behavior which increase efficiency, improve skin health and prevent infection."
