American Custom Meats (ACM), a leading co-packer in the meat processing industry, is proud to announce the appointment of Gary Pfeiffer as its new president. His arrival marks a pivotal moment for ACM as Gus Coutrakis, who led the company for over 13 years, retires and transitions into a strategic role on the board of directors.
American Custom Meats has built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality custom solutions. Under Coutrakis’ leadership, ACM saw significant growth, positioning the company as a go-to partner in the meat processing space.
Pfeiffer, who joined ACM in August, brings over 35 years of leadership experience in the meat processing industry. His expertise spans retail and foodservice solutions, and he has a strong track record in managing national and regional accounts. During his 27-year tenure at Superior Farms, Pfeiffer was critical in driving success by developing case-ready solutions for retail markets.
As President of ACM, Pfeiffer will focus on advancing the company's leadership in co-packing, driving growth, and fostering strategic partnerships. His commitment to innovation and operational excellence aligns with ACM's mission to deliver best-in-class meat processing solutions to its diverse clientele.
"I am delighted to join the incredible team at American Custom Meats," said Pfeiffer. "Together, we will drive growth through continuous innovation, a deep focus on customer needs, and delivering high-quality meat processing solutions that empower our customers to succeed in an evolving marketplace."
