Management Team Bios
William J. MoorePresident & CEO, PacMoore Products, Inc. and PacMoore Process Technologies, LLC
After graduating from the University of Wisconsin with a B.S. in chemical engineering, Bill became a product development engineer for Procter & Gamble in 1985. There, he patented and developed a new disposable diaper that remains the state-of-the-art in diaper designs today. He later moved into his stepfather’s business, George Meyer Company, where he deepened his expertise in food processing. Recognizing a need by many companies in the food industry for a trusted and capable contract manufacturing partner, Bill soon evolved the company to meet this need.
In 1992, he leased a 50,000 square-foot facility in Chicago and opened PacMoore Products, Inc. as a majority shareholder. In just one year, the young company outgrew its space and relocated to Hammond, Indiana, which is where the 200,000 square foot company headquarters is located today. In 2006, PacMoore built a new 110,000 square-foot plant in Mooresville, Indiana, outside of Indianapolis.
Bill’s energy and forward-thinking attitude have helped to spur this remarkable growth, not only in facilities but in sales and people as well. The company employs 200 people, processes approximately 150 million pounds of ingredients annually and generates annualized sales over $25 million.
Bill, his wife Susan, and their two sons live in Frankfort, Illinois and worship at Calvary Church in Orland Park.
