ADC is pleased to announce that Robert Appell, previously ADC’s Chief Operating Officer, has been promoted to Chief Executive Officer at ADC, effective immediately. Steve Loveridge will now assume the role of Chairman at ADC and remains as the corporation’s owner.
Robert Appell has been with ADC since 1999, when he was hired as a Software Engineer and then promoted to a Senior Developer in 2001. After several more promotions over the next 10 years, Robert was promoted to Vice President of Development in 2006 and then to Chief Operating Officer in 2011.
Through his multiple positions at ADC, Robert has acquired a deep knowledge of all aspects of ADC’s product development and has a vast understanding of the Fresh Item Management business and technical requirements across ADC’s diverse client base.
“Having been with ADC for over 16 years, I look forward to continuing to work with our talented team to contribute to the company’s growth and deliver on ADC’s commitment to our clients of Keeping Fresh Profitable,” said Robert.
While Steve Loveridge has transitioned to Chairman of ADC, he remains the owner of ADC and continues to retain an active role in the design of ADC’s products and in operations of the company, including ADC’s continued growth in the European, Middle East and African markets. “We believe that this transition within ADC’s executive management ensures continuity of service to our customers, as well as our valued partners,” said Steve. “Additionally, it allows us to further our expansion into new markets and verticals.”
