Jeff Bettelon brings over 30 years of experience in the packaging and corrugated industry. He began his career in 1997 as a sales representative for Greif Bros. in Wayne, Michigan. When that facility closed just over a year later, Jeff transitioned to Plymouth Packaging, a highly respected independent company out of Plymouth, Michigan, where he achieved exceptional success during a 15 year sales career.
In 2011, Jeff was promoted to General Manager, a position he held for seven years. During his tenure, Plymouth Packaging was acquired by WestRock, which sought to expand its Box on Demand platform through fanfold corrugation. Jeff remained in his leadership role for approximately one year following the acquisition, helping guide the transition of the sheet plant into a larger facility designed to support a corrugator and high speed equipment. Once the relocation was completed and the strategic shift toward high volume production was underway, Jeff elected to resign.
He subsequently relocated to the Nashville, Tennessee area to run a sheet plant for Jamil Packaging. While that role was shorter than anticipated, Jeff was soon approached by Greif to take on a Regional Sales Manager position in the Southeast, which he accepted. Most recently, following Greif’s sale of its corrugated and containerboard business to Packaging Corporation of America (PCA), Jeff continues to serve in a management capacity, handling all bulk and triple wall sheet opportunities.
