Conner Industries, Inc., the leading provider of industrial packaging solutions (wood, foam, corrugate, and plastics), lumber, industrial wood crates, and pallets, today announced the appointment of Kevin Kenjarski as Chief Revenue Officer (CRO).
Kenjarski has over 25 years of sales and marketing leadership in the packaging industry, most recently holding senior executive roles at Smurfit Westrock, where he led a billion-dollar sales organization and delivered consistent revenue and profit growth. He also held leadership positions at Pretium Packaging and Clondalkin Group, building a strong track record of strategic growth and customer-focused execution.
“Kevin’s track record building high-performing commercial teams and driving profitable growth in complex packaging categories is exactly what Conner needs for its next phase,” said David Dixon, Chief Executive Officer of Conner Industries. “As we expand our industrial packaging capabilities across wood, foam, corrugate, and plastics—including military and aerospace applications—Kevin will align revenue teams around disciplined execution, key account growth, and customer value creation.”
“Conner has a unique position as a single-source provider that marries industrial wood expertise with multi-material packaging,” said Kevin Kenjarski, Chief Revenue Officer of Conner Industries. “I’m excited to partner with David and the team to scale our go-to-market engine, deepen key customer relationships, and bring data-driven commercial rigor to every deal.”
Kenjarski will oversee revenue strategy and execution across sales, key accounts, commercial operations, and pipeline development, working closely with Conner’s Industrial Packaging Division to meet growing customer demand in transportation and protective packaging environments—including defense, aerospace, manufacturing, and industrial markets.
Kenjarski’s appointment follows a series of strategic expansions for Conner, including the recent growth of its Guardian Packaging facility and the acquisition of Kirkland Sales Inc., as the company continues to scale its industrial packaging division nationwide.
