Colbert Packaging (colbertpkg.com), a premier manufacturer of paperboard packaging, announces the promotion of Account Executive Ryan Hart to the role of Vice President, Sales and Marketing. Ryan has led a successful career in the packaging industry since 2002 when he joined Barger Packaging in Elkhart, Indiana.

"I am passionate about forging deep relationships with my customers through unparalleled responsiveness, and fostering enjoyable, solution-driven experiences for customers and prospects alike," states Hart. In this new role, Ryan leads Colbert's sales and marketing efforts in pursuit of growth opportunities across multiple industries with a core focus on the healthcare sector.
Ryan takes on this role, formerly held by Lon Johnson, as Johnson takes on an advisory role as Senior Vice President of Sales. "For 15 years, Ryan and I developed a close and collaborative relationship as we worked together to grow Colbert's book of business with an emphasis on healthcare and a focus on aligning Colbert with technological advancements specific to the pharmaceutical industry," says Johnson.
