Dömmen Reorganizes As Company's Growth Continues

Dümmen USA has reorganized and expanded its staff this year with the following changes:

Paul Hammer has moved to Dümmen’s headquarters in Hilliard, Ohio, to join P. Allen Hammer. Before transitioning into this role, Paul was western regional manager. As a technical services manager, Paul will work to expand Dümmen’s technical service support for brokers and growers, as well as facilitate the various product development projects in North America.

Diane Surette Cournoyer will assume a new U.S. territory. Surette Cournoyer will now be responsible for managing the Western United States while maintaining her position as general manager for Dümmen in Canada.

He has experience working with growers on production quality, production scheduling as well as managing and reporting on trials, as the former annual trial manager at Ohio State University.
