Bristol PA-based Volkmann, Inc., manufacturer of high quality pneumatic vacuum conveyors and unloading equipment for the food, pharmaceutical, chemical and additive manufacture industries, is delighted to announce the hiring of Rafael Navarro to fill the newly created position of sales manager. Volkmann’s increased growth in all channels, but most recently as a result of the addition of its system for additive manufacturing, has created the need for additional managerial talent to further improve customer support.

Navarro is an accomplished sales leader with considerable expertise in systems for pharmaceutical processing and packaging. He most recently served in sales management at Schubert Packaging and Bosch Packaging Technology, both in Philadelphia. Prior to that he was with L.B. Bohle GmbH.
