Reiter Affiliated Companies names Hector Lujan as CEO
“Over the past 40 years, I have had the privilege to work alongside many great individuals and steward the company along the way, guiding, engaging and navigating a path to where we stand today,” said Reiter, previous Chief Executive Officer. “In my new capacity, I will be responsible for leading our Board of Directors and guiding strategy. I have great confidence in Hector and the accomplishments that he has achieved have allowed him to establish a great depth of knowledge and business acumen for our diverse international business.”
Lujan joined the company in 2002 as Vice President of Central Mexico for the company’s Mexican affiliate, BerryMex. By 2005, due to Lujan’s strong leadership capabilities and development, his role expanded, consolidating all of the company’s Mexico farming operations in Jalisco, Michoacán, and Baja California. In 2011, Lujan and his family relocated to the U.S. to work for RAC as the Chief Operating Officer (COO).
Before joining the company, Lujan worked for Bionova Fresh, a subsidiary of Grupo Pulsar, as Operations Manager in their farming and marketing companies. He is a graduate of the Instituto Tecnologico de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, México with a degree in Business Administration.
“I have had the great good fortune of working directly with Garland for the last 14 years, and am honored to be his successor as CEO of RAC,” said Lujan. “My goal is to bring renewed growth and excitement into the business so that we can continue on our path of success. With that goal comes great challenges, but I believe we have a strong team here who are ready to drive us forward” he said.
