“We are thrilled to partner with W+D’s talented leadership team and its team members worldwide who have performed well under the leadership of Frank Eichhorn, W+D’s Managing Director,” said Tim Sullivan, Barry-Wehmiller Group President. “As we bring W+D into the Barry-Wehmiller family, we look forward to even greater successes as we leverage the resources of both companies to optimize opportunities for W+D’s associates and customers alike.”
“We are very excited about joining Barry-Wehmiller and are confident that their ideas and experience will further enhance our success in providing outstanding customer service in the markets we serve,” said Frank Eichhorn, Managing Director of W+D. “We look forward to a long and mutually rewarding journey with them.”
“Thanks to Körber’s leadership, W+D brings a strong foundation and technological and operational expertise to the Barry-Wehmiller family and we look forward to working alongside their team to expand our presence in the mailing solutions market,” said Bob Chapman, Chairman and CEO of Barry-Wehmiller. “We welcome W+D’s 360+ team members whom we know will greatly benefit from Barry-Wehmiller’s unique, people-centric culture, financial strength and unwavering commitment to purpose-driven growth.”
