As head of North America Operations & Global Operational Excellence, Bekki Kidd’s leadership will extend across the Company’s domestic operations including distribution centers; commercial and compounding pharmacies; regulatory; continuous improvement; and company-wide, global operational excellence. Bekki joins Covetrus from Cardinal Health, where she held leadership roles in global planning, manufacturing, supply chain and operational excellence over the last ten years. Bekki has also worked for Abbott Nutrition, the Coca Cola Company, GE Superabrasives and PPG Industries.

András Bolcskei, Covetrus’ first president of International, is charged with bringing all commercial teams outside of North America together and is responsible for business within Europe, Asia-Pacific and Emerging Markets. András arrives at Covetrus with more than 25 years of experience and a deep background in animal health pharmaceuticals, including at both Merck and Pfizer, where he held leadership roles across Europe and Africa. András is also a veterinarian, who shares Covetrus’ commitment to and advocacy on behalf of the veterinarian.

Covetrus senior executives Mike Ellis and David Hinton will be retiring. This paved the way for combining all commercial responsibilities for Europe, Asia-Pacific and Emerging Markets under Bolcskei.

“Both András and Bekki bring a wealth of experience to their roles. Their appointments will further our progress driving better health and business outcomes for our customers,” said Ben Wolin, president and CEO of Covetrus. “We are grateful for the leadership provided by Mike Ellis and David Hinton, which helped Covetrus get to this stage. Both have been instrumental in our success over the years, and their legacies will carry forward with us.”
