Butter Buds Food Ingredients has announced that John Buhler has been named the company’s president. This change comes as Bill Buhler steps down from the role in the company and moves toward retirement, though he will continue to be involved in special projects within the family-owned company.
“We are very proud of the growth Butter Buds has experienced under Bill’s leadership,” said John Buhler, president of Butter Buds. “We have tripled in size—expanding our workforce, applications capabilities, quality assurance and regulatory expertise to best meet the needs of our expanding customer partnerships—so that today Butter Buds is a global leader in concentrated dairy and flavor ingredients. Now as I take the reins of this fantastic company, I can’t help but look back at the work our father began forty years ago. We have always been a family-owned company that values our greatest assets—our people, pushing for growth in new applications and innovative product development, and I can assure everyone that will not change.”
