Poland will lead Campbell’s end-to-end supply chain function
including procurement, food safety and quality, occupational health
and safety, engineering, planning and logistics, and all
manufacturing sites and the company’s network of contract
manufacturers. He will report to Campbell’s President and Chief
Executive Officer Mark Clouse and become a member of the Campbell
Leadership Team and a Corporate Officer.
Poland has extensive experience in the consumer packaged goods
(CPG) industry, having served in senior supply chain, operations,
plant management and research and development roles with large,
leading corporations and high-growth companies. Poland joins
Campbell from KIND Snacks where he was Chief Operating Officer
since 2019. Prior to that, he was Executive Vice President and
Chief Supply Chain Officer at Pinnacle Foods. He also spent several
years as Vice President of North America Supply Chain for WhiteWave
Foods. Earlier in his career, Poland spent approximately 15 years
at the H.J. Heinz Company, where he held roles ranging from Plant
Manager through Chief Supply Chain Officer of Heinz North America.
He began his career at Nestle and Gerber.
“Dan has leadership experience at all levels of the CPG supply
chain, from his early career as a plant manager to senior
cross-functional roles across the industry. His track record of
building high-performing teams and driving execution will be
invaluable as we continue to deliver growth while also navigating
one of the most dynamic and challenging supply chain environments
in decades,” said Clouse.
Poland earned his B.S. in agricultural engineering from Michigan
State University and his MBA from the University of Iowa.
Furbee to retire after nearly 40 years with Campbell
Furbee, Executive Vice President, Global Supply Chain, has been
with Campbell since 1984, holding roles of increasing
responsibility across manufacturing, operations, sourcing and
quality, both in the U.S. and internationally. During his career,
he led the development and implementation of the company’s supply
chain strategy, championed safety performance and transformed
Campbell’s quality function. Furbee has led Campbell’s supply chain
through the COVID-19 pandemic.
Clouse said, “Bob has had a remarkable career at Campbell,
spanning nearly four decades, and has been a true partner as we
executed our transformation plan. He has played a crucial role as
we navigated a truly unprecedented environment over the last 22
months. We are deeply grateful for his contributions and wish him
the best in his retirement.”
