IMA Dairy & Food USA, whose brand include Gasti, Hamba, Hassia, Fillshape, Corazza, Erca, AlphaMAC, and Intecma, has hired longtime packaging and dairy sector sales specialist Daniel Margherio as its national business development manager.

In this role, Margherio’s primary focus will be IMA’s Fillshape business unit, which manufactures and designs filling systems for flexible stand-up pouches (both with and without spout) in dairy, food, beverage, and personal care applications.

Margherio was previously business development manager, liquid food & beverage for Fres-Co System USA, a position he held since 2016. Prior to that, he held business development management roles with snack and confectionary manufacturer The Warrell Corp., as well as with Farmland Dairies of Wallington, NJ, where he worked for a decade.

IMA Dairy & Food recently introduced Zero Technology, a means of producing single-serve, sustainability-minded PET cups for dairy and other food items. In Q4 of 2022, the company also took over sales activities for extrusion blow mold machinery suppler AlphaMAC, an Italy-based equipment provider (and IMA Group member) specializing in solutions for the packaging of liquid products.

“Daniel’s track record of overseeing successful, often double-digit sales growth will help IMA continue to grow our North American market share in the dairy and greater food packaging landscape,” said Patrick Carroll, president of IMA Dairy & Food USA. “His highly relevant background, impressive skill set and engaging personality make him exceptionally well-suited for his new role, and we’re delighted to welcome him.”

Margherio has a degree in Business Administration from the State University of New York (SUNY) Binghamton.
