Per D. Pedersen

Selecting and acquiring site, selecting construction company and engineers, developing project and building new factory at well as hiring and building new business in USA.

Facilitated growth from 2 to 150 mil.$ business within cultures for food and supplements, developing strategy, building plants, building export network, developing new product portfolio and also acquisitions.

Always kept fantastic EBITDA's, in fact some of the best of all Italian companies!

The owners then asked me to do same again in USA for CSL USA!

Continued running the Wisby business and integrating it into Danisco while growing it 17-18% per year, but as all the promises from the beginning were overridden by the major acquisition of Cultor I decided to leave as soon as the integration was finished.

Wisby Denmark being Independent owned Company but part of the same group was a huge part of the Wisby success story, growing very fast in its sales areas and having huge EBITDA's then lending all the money to Wisby GmbH in Germany!

Wisby Aps owned by same owners but independent company was huge part of the Wisby success story, as sales grew enormously and EBITDA's were out of the world we could lend Wisby GmbH a lot of money and were the largest capital provider apart from owners directly into Wisby GmbH.

Head of technial part of Wisby, all from oprations, R&D, application and partly Sales&marketing.

Enabling growth of 20% or more per year with fantastic EBITDA's All till sold to Danisco because owners no more could agree on how to run the company.

In charge of operations, R&D and application of Wisby till a pointe CEO in 1987.

Laboratorium Visby Aps, later Wisby Aps, was sales and marketing company of owners of Wisby GmbH and as such apart from running sales for certain markets I also ran application and partly product development of Wisby .

Huge success in sales and earnings giving me the opportunity to be promoted within the group...
